I would be in charge of checking certain areas within a zone for any mosquito activity to prevent any breeding in those areas.

I was also in charge of treating and locating new storm drains in our county to prevent any larvae from breeding in cities and areas such as parks, schools, or recreational areas, where people tend to host activities.

I also had to treat cornfields with BTI, and sometimes a duplex mix, if needed. In some cases, I would also be assigned to treat some drainage ditches and sloughs that were breeding with larvae.

I also had to treat dairy drains for weeds in order to prevent breeding areas where adult mosquitoes preferred to lay their eggs in the shaded spots of those dairy drains.
