BEXAR COUNTY, Texas —
In anticipation of mosquito-borne viruses Bexar County has started their mosquito prevention. They use three different methods to help protect residents.
On a regular basis the county sprays a chemical into the air killing adult mosquitoes, they also drop chemical pellets, known as “dunks” into stagnant water to kill mosquito larva and then on a weekly basis they trap and test mosquitoes for Zika and West Nile.
“We’re typically able to do a full circuit of the county about five to six times during a mosquito season,” said Renee Green with the Bexar County Public Works Department.

Like the county, the city of San Antonio also uses dunks to fight against mosquitoes. The chemical pellets are their main method to combat the pesky creatures. The city will spray, but not on a regular basis, like the county, only for certain circumstances.
“Logically they’re [dunks] more effective, because if you can get them before they emerge as adults, then they have not had an opportunity to breed or lay more eggs or bite any humans,” said Colleen Bridger with Metropolitan Health District.
San Antonio just received a $800,000 federal grant to help fight mosquitoes. The money will be used for their lab and to hire two environmental health specialists.

Yellowjacket - Stinging Insects 101

Pest: Yellowjackets have a yellow and black color pattern and are between 3/8 - 5/8 inches.
Nest: Yellowjackets live in nests constructed of paper carton, which can grow to be basketball-sized. One nest will contain a number of rounded paper combs, attached one below another and covered with a many-layered envelope. Depending on the species, the nest may be near the ground, such as on plant roots, logs or timber, or aerial and attached to shrubs, bushes, houses, garages or sheds.
Threat: Yellowjackets are slow to sting, unless their nests are threatened. Yellowjackets are considered beneficial insects because they control many pest insect species. However, if their nest is located near a structure, control is warranted.
Remember, it is not advised to attempt to remove a stinging insect nest on your own, and doing so can be extremely dangerous. Instead, work with a licensed pest professional to access your property and the nest, to identify the type of stinging insect (like wasps or other dangerous stingers), and to determine the best way to eliminate the threat to your family.
