Five Years of No Spray in West Marin!
May 22, 2009. Local victory protects coho critical habitat from insecticides. A five year agreement was just signed with the Sonoma/Marin Mosquito and Vector Control District that there will be no insecticide spraying in West Marin unless there is a state emergency. Only Bt and Bti, two bacterial treatments for mosquito larvae which are approved for use on or near organic farms, can be used in West Marin to control mosquitoes. SPAWN applauds all the locals who worked hard to achieve this victory against toxic pesticide spraying!
