This is a courtesy notification informing you of OCMVCD’s upcoming mosquito control efforts: ➡️IRWD San Joaquin Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary in the City of Irvine. Please note: This application is a preventative public health measure to reduce mosquito populations and help lower the risk of mosquito-borne diseases. The product used consists of a biological insecticide that contains a type of bacteria called Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti), which is a naturally occurring bacteria found in soil. It is a safe and effective biological insecticide in controlling insect pests in various environments. A District biologist will conduct biological monitoring before, during, and after the application to minimize disturbance to sensitive wildlife and habitats.

Special district representatives had a productive meeting with the office of Senator Tony Strickland to discuss issues important to our communities, including water and wastewater services, mosquito and vector control, and the proposed Orange County Veterans Cemetery. These conversations help strengthen partnerships and ensure local priorities are heard as we work together to serve residents throughout the region!
