Midge treatment
The City's midge treatment program will continue over the festive season. The lakes will be treated with a hybrid larvicide on a constant 14-day rotation during midge breeding cycles. Further to this, the lakes were treated on 17 December with a higher concentration as per our Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority off label permit. This will provide a residual treatment period of 30 days. The City will continue to monitor the traps during the holiday period.
