Mosquito spraying ordered around all Keller traps
| Residents will notice ground spraying for mosquitoes around all five of Keller’s traps in the days ahead after mosquito samples collected this week tested positive for West Nile Virus. Our traps are located at:151 W. Bear Creek Pkwy.540 Keller Smithfield Road South1792 Ottinger Road7000 Shady Grove Road8751 Davis Blvd.The latest positives bring us to 13 out of the 168 total tests of Keller traps throughout the season, but having all five locations test positive in a single week has not been the norm in Keller. Our results reflect the trends Tarrant County is seeing as a whole, with a jump in positive tests over the past several weeks. With 76 positive tests reported throughout the county since last Thursday, our mosquito spraying vendor is working hard to meet demand. Wind and weather permitting, spraying will occur in Keller between tonight, July 25 and Sunday evening, July 28. Efforts will target roads within a half-mile of each trap, with work between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. Gated communities: Please open your gates all four nights if you wish to have your streets sprayed.
