In the City of North Port, the responsibility for mosquito management falls under the jurisdiction of Sarasota County. The County’s Mosquito Management Services website can serve as a valuable resource, providing extensive information about their mosquito control measures, including the timing, locations, and methods for their spraying and treatment procedures. Additionally, the website offers a feature for residents to register for notifications about upcoming treatments, and request services for specific areas.
