Announcement for Community Action for Mosquito Control
The Asian Tiger Mosquito (ATM) is present in Phillipsburg and other urban areas of Warren County. This mosquito is an aggressive day-time biter that is capable of spreading several mosquito-borne diseases. Asian tiger mosquitoes require small containers of standing water to develop from egg to adult. The easiest way to eliminate these mosquitoes is to get rid of standing water around your home. The adults do not fly far, so if you are getting bit then there are containers very close by that are producing the mosquitoes, likely somewhere in your neighborhood! Talk to your neighbors.
