Suggested Post Text: Integrated mosquito management (IMM) employs different methods to reduce mosquito numbers, and spraying is just one of many tools. IMM combines several strategies, such as reducing standing water, controlling larvae, monitoring adult mosquito populations, testing adult mosquitoes for viruses, educating the public, and applying targeted treatments only when necessary. The goal is to use the most appropriate method at the right time to reduce mosquito populations while minimizing environmental impacts.
