GYPSY MOTH TREATMENT NOTICE:
The NCDA &CS Gypsy Moth Program has decided to conduct a treatment in order to control a gypsy moth infestation in the Walnut Cove area with Splat Gypsy Moth-Organic, a lotion-like substance containing the female gypsy moth attractant pheromone. Splat Gypsy Moth-Organic is a safe, certified organic product that is not harmful to plants, humans, or animals. It does not kill anything, but rather controls populations by confusing communication between adult gypsy moth males and females, thus disrupting mating. One application will be performed using low-flying aircraft during daylight hours between June 1 and June 25. The exact treatment date and time are dependent upon weather conditions.
