CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – Charleston County will attempt to combat the mosquito problem by implementing aerial treatment in select areas in the county.

Officials say aerial spraying for adult mosquitos will occur on Saturday in the McClellanville, Germantown, and South Santee areas.

According to Charleston County, “Mosquito Control sends out weekly aerial aquatic stage mosquito inspection and treatment notices to inform the general public and concerned agencies that mosquito control aircraft may be flying over populated areas at a lower altitude.”

Spraying will be conducted between 6:30 and 8:30 p.m. County officials advise that Sunday could also be utilized as backup if the need arises. If so, spraying will be conducted between 6 and 8:30 a.m.
