2026 Schedule of Adult Mosquito Control throughout Southern Manitoba under Ministerial Order
As of August 3, 2026
Mosquito spraying will take place in the evening or overnight, weather conditions permitting. Information on adult mosquito control schedules for West Nile virus and a description of the areas to be sprayed are available below. Adult mosquito control cannot occur when weather conditions are unfavourable, i.e. when temperature is below 13 degrees Celsius, when wind speeds are not conducive, or if there is significant precipitation. If weather conditions are not conducive to adult mosquito control on the identified night, adult mosquito control will usually occur the next consecutive night, as weather permits.
Communities in southern Manitoba may be issued a Ministerial Order to undertake adult mosquito control to prevent or alleviate the threat of West Nile virus to human health. The Order may require that adult mosquito control be undertaken within a specific community and may include an extended treatment area around the community.
