Mosquito Control History Through the Years


Mosquito Control’s first home was little more than an old barn located around what is now Linebaugh Avenue and Armenia. In 1954 a new facility was acquired on Seddon Island, now known as “Harbour Island.” The only access to the island was by railroad bridge, and wooden timbers were laid lengthwise along the railing in order to drive automobiles over. It was a treacherous crossing, but luckily no one ever went over the edge!
