    Because of recent rains, the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District has scheduled aerial larviciding missions for Tuesday, July 11, from 6:30 to 9:30 a.m., over Upper Key Largo, Middle Key Largo and Upper Matecumbe.

    The airplane/helicopter mission will be completed, weather permitting, using Bti, which is a mosquito larva-specific soil bacteria. It is mixed with water and applied as a mist to combat Aedes aegypti, the mosquito that can transmit dengue fever, chikungunya and Zika.

    Keep track of FKMCD aerial adulticide, larvicide and fog truck missions by downloading the treatment notification app at https://keysmosquito.org.

    For information, call Mosquito Control at 305-292-7190.
