Aerial mosquito larvicide treatment - 11 March 2026

In accordance with the City's mosquito management plan, due to recent high tides inundating the wetlands, the larval activity now requires treatment.

The City is planning to undertake an aerial larvicide treatment by Heliwest tomorrow Wednesday 11 March 2026 between 9am and 5pm. We will be using Vectoprime FG to be applied at label rates.

The treatment will occur in the wetland area south of Waterford from Cygnia Cove through to the Salter Point Lagoon.

Exact treatment time will depend on Perth Air Traffic Control clearance.
