Starting at 8pm Thursday night (September 6), and lasting until 6am Friday morning, the New York City Department of Health will be spraying pesticides from Bay Ridge to Dyker Heights and Bath Beach. This is part of the City’s controversial strategy to mitigate the risk of the West Nile Virus, which is transmitted to humans by mosquitos.
Spraying will impact all of Bay Ridge south of 86th Street, as well as areas south of 81st Street east of 4th Avenue.
