BERGEN COUNTY MOSQUITO CONTROL LARVICIDING SCHEDULED FOR THURSDAY AUGUST 26, 2021
the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Ridgewood NJ, due to the high amount of rain we received over the weekend, Bergen County Mosquito Control will be larviciding the non-residential area of Grove Park, which is located off of Grove Street and adjacent to the Saddle River and the Borough of Paramus. The application will be made by helicopter. This will help to drastically reduce the mosquito breeding in the park wetland areas.

By helicopter ?
I hope they don’t do it on a windy day.
Helicopter was here this morning.
The helicopter was Very Low flying. First he went the length of the Grove Parklands along the Saddle River, but then he changed course and flew the Width of widest part of woods and overshot right over the adjacent houses to the parkland. He came out to over the road, did turn arounds, tilted (acrobats) to fly back over houses to the woods, and repeated doing that several times. Very risky. He wasn’t supposed to fly so extremely low over residential houses, just the woods.
