I’m sensitive to pesticides; does Dunes West spray our neighborhood for mosquito control?

Dunes West does not spray pesticides on homeowner’s properties; however, there is a relevant program. Mosquito Control is a Charleston County program, not controlled by the DWPOA or our board. Residents are able to report specific mosquito problems to Charleston County. Detailed information is available at this link:  https://www.charlestoncounty.org/departments/public-works/mosquito-about.php

Here’s info pertinent to your sensitivity to pesticides from the county: 

• Ground Spray: Charleston County has 9 ground spray trucks, for the purpose of adult mosquito treatment and 6 inspectors and 2 ground crews for larvae treatment. The adult treatment is conducted from 11pm to 7am to avoid impacts with bees and citizens. Additionally, our spray truck drivers have addresses to avoid local bee keepers, citizens with chemical sensitivities and allergies. If you have questions or concerns, please call Mosquito Control at 843-202-7880.
• Chemical Sensitive and Allergies: Charleston maintains a call book of these individuals who have notified Charleston County. We provide notice 24 hours before an Aerial Adult Stage Treatment and day of notification for treatment by spray trucks.

There is complete information on the chemicals used for both air spray and ground spray for the county program at the link above.
