General
Information
Public
Service Announcements (PSAs) will be released daily at least eight hours in
advance of fogging. These PSAs will identify the Insect Management Areas
the ICB is planning to treat that evening, weather permitting. Until
further notice, fogging will be carried out on a daily basis between the
hours of 9:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. Fogging will not occur when
temperatures are below 13 degrees Celsius and/or wind speeds are not
conducive to fogging.
The
insecticide Pro Malathion ULV® will be used. This insecticide has
been approved for use in Canada by Health Canada’s Pest Management
Regulatory Agency. Pro Malathion ULV® will be used in accordance with
federally approved label directions by licensed pesticide
applicators.
All
buffer zones will be respected. Crews will ensure that the sprayer
is not treating within 90 metres on each side of a registered property on
the front street, side street, and rear lane.
Property owners not wanting insecticides
applied on or adjacent to their principal residence may register as
“Anti-Pesticide Registrants” (APR) for the adult nuisance mosquito control
program. Those who wish to register must provide identification that ties
the registrant to the address being registered for a buffer zone. A
photocopy or scanned document such as a driver’s licence or a utility bill
will suffice as acceptable identification proving primary residence. Remember
– a 72-hour turnaround time is required.
There are
four different options to register:
- In writing to Insect Control Branch at 3 Grey
Street, Winnipeg, MB, R2L 1V2,
- Emailing 311 at 311@winnipeg.ca or faxing 311, and
- In person at 1539 Waverley Street.
Personal
notification by telephone and/or email of the fogging program activities is
also available by:
- Contacting the Insect Control Branch in writing at
3 Grey Street, Winnipeg, MB R2L 1V2,
- Emailing 311@winnipeg.ca or faxing 311,
- Registering online, and
- In person at 1539 Waverley Street.
The Insect
Control Branch’s extensive larviciding and residual treatment programs will
continue throughout the city in conjunction with the fogging program.
For more
information, please contact 311, open 24 hours every day by phone at 311 or
by email at 311@winnipeg.ca,
