Our mission is to protect the health and safety of the residents and taxpayers of Bannockburn, Riverwoods, Deerfield, Highland Park, and Highwood by reducing the risk of disease through science-based, ecologically sound mosquito control.
We accomplish this efficiently and effectively. We have no employees, no pension costs, no facilities and no equipment. We outsource all seasonally required services to our contractor, Clarke, the foremost mosquito environmental management firm.
South Lake Mosquito Abatement District practices integrated mosquito control. In summary, we do:
1. Proactive inspection and larviciding of up to 6,700 storm drains and above-ground breeding sites from may to October.
2. Surveillance of 22 mosquito traps for targeted prevention and adult mosquito control
3. Aerial survey for stagnant and abandoned swinning pools
4. Larval control assistance to residents due to stagnant water on their property
5. Public education and community outreach
6. Informative Website and Mosquito Hotline for voluntary notification system
