Mosquitoes as Nuisances in New Jersey War on Bugs Progress
A New Jersey public health view notes strong progress against salt marsh mosquitoes in the northeastern counties due to marsh drainage and tidewater circulation. Local action lags on fresh water breeding grounds in swamps, rainwater barrels, and cisterns, where disease transmission remains a risk. Extermination relies on drainage, oil treatment, proper stream clearing, fish in streams, and screening to prevent breeding. Local authorities are urged to act with urgency to curb these health threats.
