The Ministry of Health and Wellness’ Vector Control Unit will concentrate its mosquito reduction efforts in St. John and St. Michael communities next week.
Inclement weather disrupted the completion of the fogging programme in these parishes this week. As a result, the Unit will target those areas previously scheduled for fogging.
The team will focus on St. John districts for the first three days before visiting areas in St. Michael.
On Monday, December 8, the team will spray Ashbury Tenantry Road, Lemon Arbour Village, Knights Village, Lower Four Roads, Spooners, Pool Land Nos. 1 and 2 and environs.
The following day, Tuesday, December 9, 1st Avenue Redland Tenantry, Redland Tenantry, Bailey Alley, Sweet Vale, Brathwaite Road, Butcher Road, Sweet Bottom, Groves, Claybury, and Golden Ridge Village will be fogged.
It will be the turn of Eastmont Road, Cheshire, Small Hope Tenantry No.1, and Gall Hill Nos.1 and 2 on Wednesday, December 10.
The Unit will fog districts in St. Michael for the remainder of the week. On Thursday, December 11, it will target Dr. Kerr Land, Greenidge Road, School Road, Springer Gap, Hamlet Gap, Taylor Gap, Brathwaite Gap, Dash Gap, Prescod Bottom, Mottley Land, Halls Land, Headley Land, Taylor Land, Advent Avenue, and Bank Hall Cross Road.
The fogging exercise for the week will conclude on Friday, December 12, in Perry Gap, Country Road, Tamarind Avenue, Laundry Road, Fordes Road, Skeetes Road, Pavilion Road, Downey Avenue, Progressive Road, Holligan Road, Fields Gap, Country Park Towers and surrounding areas.
Fogging takes place from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. daily. Householders are reminded to open their windows and doors to allow the spray to enter. Children should not be allowed to play in the fog.
The public is advised that the completion of scheduled fogging activities may be affected by events beyond the Unit’s control. In such circumstances, the Unit will return to communities affected in the soonest possible time. (BGIS)
