Gunters Island
Dog Bluff
Aerial spraying will be conducted in the evenings usually between 7 p.m. - dusk and ground operations from 7 p.m. - 11 p.m. Monday - Thursday.
The chemicals used for mosquito control spraying are approved by the EPA and pose minimal risk to humans or animals. Individuals with asthma or other respiratory illness may wish to stay indoors and close windows and doors during spraying. In addition, homegrown fruits and vegetables should be washed, scrubbed, and/or peeled before eating.
To help keep our honeybee population safe, beekeepers are urged to contact Horry County Mosquito & Spraying to identify the location of their colonies.

Horry County and its surrounding areas will receive more than $900 million worth of road
construction by 2004. For detailed project information, visit the
South
Carolina Department of Transportation.
Several of the projects are already underway, while many more will begin in the next few
months. Overlapping construction schedules may cause some congestion, but the end result
will be new roads and a much-improved transportation network.
