Proposal aims to expand La Pine mosquito control beyond city limits
(Update: Adding video, comments from owner of mosquito vector)
Owner of $200,000 home would pay $80 a year for service
LA PINE, Ore., (KTVZ) The city of La Pine conducts a mosquito control service. However, the boundaries for the control area only include the city limits.
Mosquitos lay their eggs in water. When water basins flood, those areas become the bugs ultimate breeding ground.
The city only sprays within its limits, so the water basins never get treated. That means the source of mosquitoes survives, as the properties adjacent to the city boundary lines aren t treated.
