The primary purpose of the RDKB Nuisance Mosquito Control Program is to reduce the duration and magnitude of nuisance mosquitos to tolerable levels. The Program does this by focusing on mosquito larvae control methods including public education, monitoring, and biological control including the use of non-residual bacterial larvicides.

1. Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Electoral Area ‘C’ Christina Lake; and
2. Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Electoral Area ‘D’ and the City of Grand Forks.

The Program consists of the following primary tasks:
• monitoring of environmental conditions, including water levels, snowpack levels and precipitation;
• extensive on-the-ground monitoring of mosquito larvae development;
• hand treatment, and aerialtreatment when necessary, of nuisancemosquito larvae using Bacillus-containing larvicide products;
• follow-up field monitoring of treatment effectiveness and conducting re-treatments if necessary;
• responding to all public inquiries and mosquito-related complaints;
• establishing relationships with landowners and First Nationsto access non-public lands;
