JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – During the mosquito season, the city of Jamestown conducts spraying to keep groups and breeding down.

The City of Jamestown is reminding residents that there is some owner responsibility to help keep the pests down.

“Rain events, standing water, low lying areas, tall grass, and weeds are favorable conditions for mosquito breeding,” the City Vector Control Office states.

“It is the property owners’ responsibility to remove and/or repair any objects holding water such as old tires, yard debris and plugged rain gutters, etc. as they are potential mosquito breeding sites.”
