Helene Albert - Town Manager’s Office assigned this issue to Michael Pepe - Health Department

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, the Town of Windsor will be addressing this issue within the next 2-3 days.

Thank You so much for your response. It appears that mowing more might help mitigate this issue as short grass dries faster. There seem to be mosquitos nesting in the tufts of grass everywhere I walk with my dog.
Any spraying and mowing or brush trimming the town does will be greatly appreciated. I did see a mowing team down by the Windsor Station apartment's pond but the grass parkways by the sidewalks and Windsor Center Trail parking lot are still overgrown. Thank you again for your timely response.

Hello. It is Friday July 28th and I have seen no action regarding the mosquito Infestation we are experiencing in this area. This area includes the Windsor Train Station and public parking lots, Windsor Center River Trail and both public parking lots, and the pond at the Windsor Station Apartments. The swarms of mosquitos continue to increase and everyone I see and speak to are very frustrated about the pack of action from the town of Windsor. So now not only do we have the heat advisory to deal with we still have mosquito swarm /infestation.
Please let me know what the intended action wiil be. I concerned about West Nile as well as just being covered in bites. My poor dog is also covered in bites.

The affected areas have been treated for mosquitos within the last two days…There will be an additional application within the next 3 days.

Good Morning.
I appreciate the action taken but I have been out in the area three times since your response and there is no change in the swarming and infestation of mosquitos. Additionally no mowing has been done on the public parkways by the art center and public parking lots. The mosquitos are nesting in the high grass and weeds. I am glad to hear that another application will be occurring soon because the first one did nothing to mitigate the issue with mosquitos. Your continued efforts are greatly appreciated. Thank You
