Description
Dear Pinellas County,
This is with reference to the problem of growing mosquito population in our neighborhood. My family and the entire neighborhood is having an unpleasant experience of being bitten by a mosquito's. There has been a huge growth of mosquito population in this area. There is stagnated water in our backyard and a pond nearby which is not being treated and left unattended, which leads to growth of mosquitoes and other insects. The entire neighborhood is afraid to step outside their house due this situation.
I request the concerned authorities to look into the issue and take necessary action as soon as possible.
Thank You.

A service request about the mosquito problem in your area has been entered into our system; our technician should be there within one working day depending on their work load. They will inspect the property and surrounding neighborhood to determine the source of the problem and will take the necessary action to correct the problem; whenever possible we try to target mosquitoes in the aquatic juvenile stage to control them at the source.
If we cannot get into the property due to locked gates, then please check for anything that may be holding rainwater as mosquitoes will breed in containers as small as a bottle cap. We’ll be checking the area surrounding the property for anything that may be contributing to the problem, and will take the necessary steps to eliminate or treat the source.
If you are at the property when the technician arrives, please take the opportunity to talk to them about your concerns. If you are not at the property when they arrive, a card will be left providing you with detailed information on our handling of your request.
If there are any other questions or concerns you may have please call us at (727) 464-7503 or visit our website at: www.pinellascounty.org/publicworks/mosquito/
Thank you,
