Mosquito Spraying Scheduled for Monday, Aug. 31

The Warren County Mosquito Control Commission is planning a treatment for adult mosquito control in portions of Hackettstown.

Alternate Date: Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2026
Time: 8:15 p.m. – 11:59 p.m.

The application will be made with a truck-mounted ultra-low volume sprayer. The truck is well marked as a mosquito commission vehicle. The application will be made as close to sunset as possible to increase its contact with actively flying mosquitoes.

Spraying for adult mosquitoes is done on a limited and very localized basis to protect the public health from mosquito-borne illnesses.
