Areas being sprayed that don’t have current West Nile virus positive samples either have a high concentration of mosquitoes or had positive samples in the past.
Treatment is weather permitting. Areas can’t be sprayed during rain and heavy winds.
People should avoid following the public health sprayer unless necessary.
Those who must follow should stay at least 200 feet behind the vehicle. Keep windows closed and turn the air conditioning to the maximum or re-circulate to help minimize any unwanted exposures.
Anyone who doesn’t want the area around their home to be treated should contact Greene County Public Health at 937-374-5607 or ehpermits@greenecophoh.gov.
