Turlock Mosquito Abatement District provides service to Southern Stanislaus County. Residents may contact our office at (209) 634-1234 or complete the following form to request service.

Gambusia affinis, called "mosquitofish" are one of the best treatments for mosquitoes. The mosquitofish feed on the mosquito larvae actively. The District uses the fish for more permanent standing water sources such as ornamental ponds, unmaintained swimming pools, and animal water troughs.

Public education and outreach are very important parts of our Integrated Vector Management Plan. Our staff is available to provide educational presentations to public groups and students enrolled in the District's service area. We are able to tailor the information in our presentations to suit your group's needs and interests.

Neglected pools can produce large amounts of mosquitoes putting you, your family and neighbors at higher risk for West Nile virus. Help us prevent the spread of West Nile Virus and control mosquitoes in your neighborhood, by reporting unmaintained pools, ponds, or other sources of standing water.

Dead birds are some of the earliest indicators that West Nile virus activity is increasing in an area. West Nile virus is primarily a bird disease that is transmitted through mosquito bites.
