Mosquito Control

Mosquito control in Flagler County depends on where you live

The County partners with the East Flagler Mosquito Control District to monitor and suppress mosquitoes. Some areas get full, ongoing service, some get limited service when monitoring or complaints call for it, and some get no routine service.

  • Full service: Ongoing monitoring, suppression, and education, paid for by EFMCD property taxes.
  • Limited service: Paid for by a special assessment. Suppression happens when the County authorizes it, after monitoring or complaints show a need.
  • No routine service: Not taxed or assessed for mosquito control. You can still report mosquitoes to EFMCD.

How suppression is authorized in limited-service districts

In Espanola, Rima Ridge, and Daytona North, suppression is not on a fixed schedule. It follows these steps.

  1. A need shows up

    Remote monitoring shows a significant rise in mosquitoes, or several residents in the district report them within a short time.

  2. EFMCD reviews it

    The mosquito district looks at the monitoring data and complaints for that district.

  3. EFMCD recommends

    If suppression is warranted, EFMCD sends a recommendation to the County.

  4. The County authorizes

    The County decides whether to authorize suppression in that district.
