The City of Owatonna Parks Maintenance Division will begin spraying for mosquitoes on Wednesday, May 29 (weather permitting) in public parks and wooded areas.
The fogger being used is calibrated prior to application to ensure the proper amount of chemicals are released. Staff are licensed applicators and follow the Department of Agriculture best practices and guidelines. Special care is given to avoid pollinator gardens and pollinator-friendly areas at Dartt’s Park, Brooktree Golf Course and Lake Kohlmier.
