MOSQUITO FOGGING EVENT IN LONE PINE WEST


Mosquito-controlled ultra-low volume fogging applications are scheduled to be performed on the west side of Lone Pine the morning of Monday, June 8, 2026. Crews will be using truck-mounted fogging equipment to control excessive adult mosquito populations.


The Owens Valley Mosquito Abatement Program (OVMAP) plans to start fogging operations around 4 a.m. and be finished by 6:30 a.m., depending on weather. If it is too windy or temperatures are too cold, fogging will not be effective and will need to be postponed.


Protect yourself from mosquito bites by wearing long pants and long-sleeved shirts when you are outside, particularly in the morning and evening hours. To prevent bites, the California Department of Public Health recommends using EPA-registered insect repellents that contain one of the following active ingredients: DEET, Picaridin, IR3535, Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus (OLE), or Para-menthane-diol (PMD). Look for one of these ingredients on the front or back of repellent containers. Products with a higher percentage of an active ingredient will work longer to protect you. Please read and follow label directions before applying repellents.

Please report any mosquito problems to the Owens Valley Mosquito Abatement Program by calling (760) 873-7853 or visiting www.inyocounty.us.

Signage Acknowledging Timbisha Shoshone Ordered Removed From Death Valley Exhibits Just days after Death Valley National Park issued a press release celebrating the shared history and long-term relationship between the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe and Death Valley, the Trump administration has ordered the National Park Service to remove signage acknowledging the tribe from park exhibits. The directive instructs the National Park Service to remove or revise interpretive signage that recognizes the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe’s historical and ongoing connection to the land within Death Valley National Park.  Secretary’s Order 3431 directs federal land management agencies to conduct comparable audits of all content made available to the public. The order applies to exhibits at locations including the Furnace Creek Visitor Center, where language acknowledging the tribe’s homeland and continued presence has been displayed for years.
