Lexington Mosquito Spray Alert | Lexington News

Lexington’s health department is hitting the streets again with mosquito spraying in the 40505 ZIP code—this time targeting a hotspot near Constitution Park after record trap counts. It’s their second spray this summer, following earlier rounds in Eastland Parkway and Meadows/Loudon. Scheduled for early Thursday morning between 3–6 a.m., they’ll deploy EPA-approved chemical Duet, designed to knock down flying adults mid-air. The treatment only works on active mosquitoes and is deemed safe for pets and people, though it won’t touch larvae—those require separate efforts like eliminating standing water. Spraying will proceed only if skies are clear, no fog, temps above 55°F, and winds under 10 mph—because stopping these bugs before they spread disease is the real goal.
