To date there has been no information nor evidence to suggest that the new coronavirus could be transmitted by mosquitoes. The new coronavirus is a respiratory virus which spreads primarily through droplets generated when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose.
To protect yourself, clean your hands frequently with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. Also, avoid close contact with anyone who is coughing and sneezing.
The Tulare Mosquito Abatement District will continue serving it's constituents through these tough times. We will answer residential complaints and issues however with minimal contact with the public so please make sure gates are unlocked and remain inside. Our technicians will follow up all service requests with phone calls once we've determined the issue(s).
