The Delano Mosquito Abatement District, established in 1944, serves a vast area spanning 477 square miles from Famoso in Kern County to nearly Pixley in Tulare County. Committed to controlling pestiferous mosquitoes, the independent district was formed by citizens of North Kern and South Tulare Counties to safeguard against mosquito-borne diseases.
Utilizing methods such as Wide Area Larvicide Spraying (WALS) and monitoring for invasive Aedes mosquitoes, the district focuses on mosquito surveillance, control operations, and prevention strategies. With a transparent approach to its services and operations, the Delano Mosquito Abatement District plays a crucial role in protecting the community from the nuisance and health risks associated with mosquitoes.
