  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (U.S.)
• Description:
  Mosquito control districts or local government departments track mosquito populations to learn where viruses, like Zika or West Nile, are spreading in a community. When people in a large area are getting sick or large numbers of mosquitoes are found, airplanes can treat very large areas with insecticides safely, quickly, and efficiently. This process is called aerial spraying.
