Mosquito Borne Disease Control - Lebanon

Lebanon City, North Lebanon Township, North Cornwall Township, South Lebanon, Township, PA (August 21, 2025)

Residential and recreational areas in and around N. 5th Avenue, E. Scull Street, E. Weidman Street, N. Lincoln Avenue, Optimist Memorial Park, Mechanic Street, N. 7th Street, Lebanon Plaza on Quentin Road, Birch Road, Metro Drive, King Street, and S. 14th Avenue will be sprayed for adult mosquitoes beginning around sunset (8:00 pm) on August 21st. Please keep in mind that the roads listed are for reference and other roads and areas in close proximity may be sprayed as well. We ask that residents remain inside while the spray is being conducted, though outside activities may resume 30 minutes after the spray. As a common courtesy we turn off the sprayer when passing by people, but this intermission in the application alters the drift of the product which disrupts a steady, even application. This is why we ask residents to avoid being outdoors during the truck spray. The spray will conclude by 10:45 pm.

High populations of adult mosquitoes that vector West Nile Virus to humans have been detected in these areas. Weather conditions and other unexpected events could delay or cancel the spray operation. If these operations are cancelled, they will be rescheduled for August 25th.

The Lebanon and Lancaster County Mosquito and Tick-Borne Disease Control Specialist and a Department of Environmental Protection biologist will be on site for the application. The Lebanon and Lancaster Mosquito-Borne Disease Program will be conducting this truck-mounted ultra-low volume (ULV) mosquito control operation using the Lebanon County truck under business license BU 13818, and the product used will be Aquaduet applied at a rate of 1.0 fluid oz/acre. This product is designed to provide quick knockdown and effective control of adult mosquitoes. The control event is performed by way of an Ultra-Low Volume Truck Mounted Spray. Our sprayer puts out the product in microscopic droplets (approximately a shot glass of product is applied over the distance of a football field). Because the droplets are so small, they degrade quickly and are only “potent” for roughly 20 minutes before they begin to degrade. Therefore, it is unable to adhere to vegetation/surfaces or leech into groundwater. This protects non-target species such as pollinators and aquatic life. Additionally, we specifically deploy this product after dusk when the target mosquito species is most active and pollinators are not. We understand the role pollinators play, and we want to ensure that we do them no harm while also protecting public health from potential mosquito-borne diseases.

Lebanon County residents should protect themselves from mosquito bites by wearing long sleeves and pants when outside and implementing some form of repellent. Additionally, residents and homeowners should be vigilant of standing water, including artificial containers holding water such as buckets, clogged gutters, unmaintained pools, or tarps. Eliminate any stagnant water sources weekly. Something as small as a bottle cap filled with water can breed mosquitoes.

Demographic Study - Attention Residents in the Hebron Area

South Lebanon Township would like to undertake a sidewalk improvement project using Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding; however, in order for the project to qualify, a demographic survey must be conducted in the area of the proposed improvements. 

The Redevelopment Authority have mailed out surveys and it's important that every household that receives the survey respond by mailing back the survey in the postage-paid return envelope, or by calling Daniel Lyons at (717) 273-9326 x133. 

Reminder: If you are a tenant and not the property owner, the tenant should be the one to fill out the survey because the tenant lives in the area of the project.
