RIVERDALE PARK

Let's Get Rid of Those Mosquitoes!

With climate change increasing average temperatures and flooding, mosquitoes are an increasing problem.  Besides being annoying, some mosquitoes in our area have been found to carry dangerous diseases so it is important to do your part to help control the mosquito population.  Asian Tiger Mosquitoes, a newer invasive species found in our area, will typically not travel much farther than your and your neighbors’ yards, so your actions will directly affect your own health. The Town of Riverdale Park participates in the Maryland Department of Agriculture’s Mosquito Control Program and scheduled pesticide spray dates can be found on the Town's calendar.  If you would like to opt out of the scheduled pesticide spraying program, you may fill out and follow the instructions therein to mail this form.
