Each year, the St. Louis County Department of Health sprays for mosquitoes in Des Peres on Thursday evenings, May through October as needed. Effort is concentrated on pretreatment - larva control.
Spraying for adult mosquitoes is on a complaint basis only.
Source reduction is encouraged and homeowners and businesses can help by eliminating breeding sites on their property. If you need fogging services in your neighborhood, please contact
