There was a helicopter flying so low, kept circling over Richmond Ave & Richmond pkwy exit & entrance, circling over & over wetlands area. It was so low, I thought it was coming down onto Richmond Ave.

The Health Department uses two methods of pesticide application: Aerial Larviciding: Helicopters drop low-risk larvicide over marshes and other large natural areas to kill young mosquitoes before they become adults. The City does not use helicopters to treat residential areas. Adulticide: Trucks spray this pesticide to kill adult mosquitoes. It is used when testing has shown a high risk to human health. Spraying occurs in the evening in residential areas and parks.
