revealed thepresence oflarval mosquitoes ofthe Culex genus.
Pupae collected from the site were
incubated to adulthood.
The adult mosquitoes were confirmed as being ofthe Culex genus.
Culex is
the primarycarrierWestNile Virus.
The accumulation ofusedtires was again treated with
5
Abate
to control the mosquito population for approximately
30 days.
Mrs. Williams stated that her husband had accumulatedthe used tires and that now that he is in a
nursing home no more used tires will be accumulated-on the property.
