CV Vector Control

Coachella Valley Vector control (CVVC) was on property today installed the eye gnat traps around the golf course. Here at Avondale we were for years involved with the eye gnat program but due to budget cuts on the State level over the past two years we haven't been involved. The traps have been place as of this morning and will be filled with bait in the next couple of days. You will see these traps wired to the trees and I would encourage you not to touch them since the are filled with rotten egg mix.

Speaking of CVVC they will be coming out to address the fire ants and other ant species on May 2nd. This usually is quite a big process involving up to 10 of their people baiting and treating the golf course. I would strongly encourage that you inform others that you know whom walk their dogs on the golf course or release their cats at night not to do so during that time. The baits are placed all around the golf course using meats as the attractants. If our pets eat these baits they may become sick.
