Additional Free Mosquito Dunks Available at Durham County Department ...

Durham, NC - The Durham County Department of Public Health (DCoDPH) is currently offering a second and final round of free Mosquito Dunks, while supplies last, to Durham County households that were unable to receive any during the initial giveaway in July. Mosquito Dunks are a safe preventative tool to control mosquito populations around the home. Each Dunk contains Bti (Bacillus thuringiensissubspecies israelensis), a naturally occurring bacterium found in soils that kills mosquito larvae but is harmless to pets, bees, fish, birds, and other wildlife. Dunks control mosquito larvae for up to 30 days when placed into standing water. 

 

Dunks will be provided in packs of six, limit one pack per household. To pick up a pack of Dunks, visit the Durham County Human Services Building’s Environmental Health Division front desk – located at 414 E. Main St., Durham, NC, 27701, Clinic 25 – Monday-Friday, 8:30AM-5:00PM. Dunks are available to any Durham County household, on a walk-in basis, while supplies last. The household address must be provided at the time of pickup.

 

For questions about picking up the Mosquito Dunks, contact the DCoDPH Environmental Health Division, 919-560-7800.
