The Mosquito Control Plane Flying over Our City

Tuesday, June 17, 2025
We saw Low flying plane over our city a couple day ago. We believe it was a 1976 Britten-Norman BN-2A-21.

The plane is mosquito control plane, now flying over to bomb insects. Actually, it is rare to see plane at daytime.

The local administrations use the plane when they have a budget for it during heavy mosquito seasons.  

I thought they just used aerial spraying from a truck. However, spraying from a plane is concerning for many people, it can access places that trucks can't go, and then can cause:
- dead to on many bugs such as lightning bugs in our back yard.
- impact on caterpillar and monarch eggs
- harmful to pets and etc.

What do you think?
