Nancy M. W City Clerk CC: Chuck Moss, County Commissioner, District 20 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Over the past several months, the City of Birmingham has been focusing its prevention efforts on identifying mosquito breeding sites and standing water locations. The city is initiating a catch basin cleaning program. Cleaning citywide catch basins is the one step to reduce the larva population. City staff from the Department of Public Services (DPS) will administer a slow-release larvicide application to public catch basins. The city will use a water soluble pouch and briquets in the catch basins. This application will destroy the mosquito larva and prevent adult mosquito emergence. To date, we have incurred $8,493.36 for a Larvae Collection Kit, 12 cases of Altosid Briquets, 3 cases of Vectolex pouches to be used for the larvicide applications to public catch basins.
