ARCHIVED - Callosa de Segura ramps up rodent and other pest control
The town in the Vega Baja area of Alicante province has agreed a new two-year contract to tackle rodent, cockroach and mosquito populations
Callosa de Segura Town Hall has agreed a new two-year contract to step up rodent, cockroach, mosquito and other pest control.
The service, which began on Monday May 9 and has an option of being extended for a further two years, will also increase disinfection treatments across the municipality, and the periods in which they are carried out.
High temperatures and heavy rain across Alicante province have created the perfect breeding ground for mosquitos, so spraying will be carried out every two weeks until the summer when it will be reinforced every 10 days.
Cockroach populations will be tackled during the months of May, June and October, and efforts will focus on rodents in October and February.
Councillor for Health, Inmaculada Cascales, stressed that "with this new contract we will intensify the work of eliminating pests throughout the municipality, expanding treatments and increasing disinfection in areas such as the Central Market, where "before there was no action".
The first treatments will be carried out in schools, public buildings, market and streets. In addition, an emergency service has been included in the new agreement for any intervention that is required immediately.
