Officials are deploying heavy-duty tactics: targeted pesticide spraying (just two tablespoons per acre) in Anaheim, Costa Mesa, and Garden Grove, plus releasing mosquito fish to devour larvae in standing water. Residents are urged to eliminate stagnant water and wear protective gear during dawn and dusk. This is no joke — they’re pulling out all stops to stop the spread.
