A. The Public Works Department has employees who are licensed pesticide applicators. Adulticide Aqua-Reslin is applied with ULV machines (mosquito sprayers). To report mosquito problems, call the Public Works department at 252-232-2504. All mosquito complaints are shared with the District Health Department. This department conducts mosquito larva sampling and operates mosquito traps for counting and testing purposes, as well as coordinates spraying programs.
