Spray Mosquito Swamps

Mosquitoes are effectively con.

partment Of agriculture report,
1.-THE most reliable method of apply
ing %larvicides over a wide range Of
conditions is by means of spray
ers." The wet, swampy mosquito
breeding areas should be sprayed.
Much relief can be obtained around
the home by spraying screens, trees
and shrubs where the mosquitoes
light. Any good sprayer can be used
depending upon the amount Of
spraying to be done. The same
sprayer also may be used for other
purposes.
