Susan Boser, Water Resources Educator for the Penn State Extension in Beaver, appeared on Teleforum with Frank Sparks this morning, May 9, 2017. Frank and Susan discussed the growing population of Mosquito in our area and the ever popular West Nile virus. Susan explained what the mosquito traps look like that are placed in areas throughout the county to capture mosquito so they may be tested for West Nile. Once it is determined that an area is infected by possible West Nile they then spray that area. Susan also discussed and demonstrated products to assist in repelling mosquito around your house. Susan is displaying one of the products in her picture above. Susan took phone calls and answered many questions that were asked by our listeners.
