Some people may appreciate relief from mosquito spraying across Acadiana, but local beekeepers are concerned that the companies contracted by local parish governments are using pesticides that are harmful to bees.
Aerial vice president of Vector Disease Control International, Daniel Markowski, told KATC these routine sprays must be done, and are usually scheduled after severe weather when mosquitoes are stirred up as experienced with Ida and Nicholas.
