Anvil contains the pesticide Sumithrin, which is a pyrethroid that is classified as slightly toxic by the EPA. Mosquito control applications of sumithrin do not pose a significant risk to people or their pets due to the low toxicity of sumithrin and the small amount used to control mosquitoes.&nbsp;&nbsp;As with any pesticide, people should minimize exposure. If residents see a spray truck approaching, they are advised to go indoors for a couple of minutes while the spray dissipates. Residents are also advised to close windows. Beekeepers do not need to take any special precautions&nbsp;because spraying begins after dusk.<\/p>\n<p>Information regarding the schedule and areas to be sprayed is available via&nbsp;the Project\u2019s website at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sudbury.ma.us\/emmcp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/sudbury.ma.us\/emmcp<\/a>\/&nbsp; If residents have any questions related to the spraying or any questions on mosquitoes, call the East Middlesex Mosquito Control Project at 781-899-5730.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For further information, call 781-899-5730.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the week beginning July 16th, 2018, the East Middlesex Mosquito Control Project is planning to use truck mounted aerosol sprayers to apply Sumithrin in Bedford, North Reading, Reading, Sudbury and Wakefield.
