Residents of Washington Township may face seasonal threats from mosquito-borne illnesses such as West Nile Virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis, as well as tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease and Anaplasmosis. Managing mosquito and tick activity is essential to protect both residents and pets.
To mitigate these risks, local authorities and residents are encouraged to:
Eliminate standing water in birdbaths, gutters, and containers to disrupt mosquito breeding grounds.
Wear insect repellent and protective clothing when spending time outdoors, especially during dawn and dusk.
Utilize professional mosquito and tick control services to treat residential properties and communal areas.
Washington Township experiences warm, humid summers and cold winters, with mosquito and tick activity typically increasing in late spring and continuing through early fall. Rainfall and irrigation can lead to standing water, providing breeding grounds for mosquitoes, while ticks are most active in spring and autumn, particularly in wooded and grassy areas.
Mosquitoes and Proximity to Water Features: Lakes, ponds, and wetlands in and around Washington Township contribute to higher mosquito populations during warmer months.
Ticks and Dense Vegetation: Forested trails, overgrown yards, and shaded areas offer ideal habitats for ticks during their peak seasons.
