Pest Control Program

The City of Grande Prairie conducts annual pest control operations beginning in spring, weather depending, to help maintain the health of trees, parks and green spaces. These operations target noxious weeds, insects and plant diseases on City-owned land within municipal boundaries using products registered with Health Canada.

Mosquito Control Program

Mosquito control operations begin in April or May, depending on weather, and may continue through September. The City targets mosquito larvae in temporary standing water using a larvicide registered with Health Canada. Aerial application by helicopter is planned once per season lasting 3-6 days on average within the City’s mosquito control boundary.
