Redlands City Council Successful Mosquito Control & Treatment Program

Heads up, Redland City! Mosquito season is in full swing, and those little buzzers mean business. Recent warm weather and rain have created perfect breeding conditions for the saltmarsh mosquito – Aedes vigilax, across suburbs all over the City, especially the Southern Moreton Bay Islands and southern suburbs.

But fear not! Council has already implemented a comprehensive year-round treatment program to mitigate the mosquito population since the 2023 began. The last aerial treatment was on Saturday, December 2, 2023.

Kudos to them for making Redland City a mozzie-free zone!
