Find Alternative to Insect Spraying
Spraying for mosquitoes and ticks has become a more popular event each year.
Sadly, the poison spray for mosquitoes and ticks does not discriminate and kills any other insect it comes in contact with, including honeybees. Due to the decrease of insects, the creatures that depend on insects for food are finding it harder and harder to feed. There are not as many birds returning to Wilbur Point as there have been in the past.
Any questions, call your local Audubon Society and ask them about mosquito/tick spraying and the damage it is doing.
