Mosquito Spraying
The City of Yankton will be spraying for mosquitos within city limits from July 31st, 2023 to August 11th, 2023, after 6:00 p.m., weather permitting. The City of Yankton would like to remind all residents there are things you can do to help control mosquitoes. By following these simple steps you can reduce both the amount of pesticide applied and your risk of contracting disease transmitted by mosquitoes:
• Properly dispose of unwanted containers (tires, buckets, cans, etc.)
• Change water in birdbaths and wading pools at least weekly
• Make sure rain gutters are properly maintained
• Remove any debris (plastic containers, wrappers, cups, soda cans, etc.) that may be hidden behind
bushes or shrubs in your yard
• Make sure any toys left outdoors are not holding water
• Make sure flower pots do not hold water in the base for more than two or three days
• Properly maintain swimming pools, covers, and water-proof tarps
