On Tuesday, Sept. 16, there will be West Nile spraying in parts of Queens, including along the Brooklyn-Queens border, to help reduce the mosquito population and the risk of the disease.
The spraying will take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6 a.m. the next morning. In case of bad weather, the application will be delayed until Wednesday, Sept. 17 during the same hours.
The following neighborhoods are being treated due to rising West Nile virus activity with high mosquito populations, according to the city’s Health Department:
Parts of City Line, Cypress Hills, Highland Park, Howard Beach, Lindenwood, Ozone Park, Spring Creek and Woodhaven (Bordered by Jamaica Avenue and to the north; Shepherd Avenue, Fulton Street Line and Fountain Avenue to the west; Jamaica Bay to the south; and Rockaway Rail-Line, Rockaway Boulevard and Woodhaven Boulevard to the east).

The spray is not effective - other than in causing cancer!
The mosquitoes came out in my neighborhood AFTER the spraying!
Cancer - the only growth industry left in America!
Don't forget prisons....if you are revising your IRA or 401k investments, think cancer and prisons!
