Milford board learns about mosquito control

By TERRI CHILCOTE A representative from the State Board of Health addressed the Milford Town Board about mosquito control during its regular meeting Monday evening, July 14. Michael Sinsko from the State Board of Health showed slides depicting various breeding grounds for mosquitos and control methods. He said many people equate mosquito control with fogging, but pointed out, “It’s (fogging) very expensive and has only temporary control.” He explained mosquito control should be aimed at the breeding sites. He said it takes a lot of time and manpower to find the breeding sites, but once the breeding sites are found they are usually the same sites mosquitos breed year after year. According to Sinsko, there are 52 different species of mosquitos in Indiana and probably around 25 different species in this area. Mosquito Breeding Sites Sinsko gave examples of common breeding sites of en-cephalitis-carrying mosquitos. Such sites are old used rubber

tires, oxidation lagoons (lagoons with a high organic content), foul bodies of water with organic pollutants, catch basins that are constructed with depressions between the inlet and outlet pipes and sewage. Weeds also provide harborage for adult mosquitos. 'Hie State Board of Health official pointed out that healthy bodies of water, even swamps, are not the culprits, because healthy bodies of water also support natural predators who keep the mosquito population under control. . Not all standing water becomes breeding sites for mosquitos, said Sinsko. It takes the right conditions. Sinsko stated the State Board of Health will be glad to train a designated person from the community in mosquito control. The state board offers free courses and encourages this person to attend programs at Purdue University. The State Board of Health will also make available lists of mosquito control suppliers. The Milford Town Board thanked Sinsko for presenting the information and said they will

keep the program in mind for next year. Milford Fire Chief Bill Leemon expressed his appreciation to the community for its help during the aftermath of the recent wind storm. The board told Leemon the fire department is the one who should be thanked. “We, the town board, would like to thank you, the fire department,” stated board member Bob Auer. Civil Defense Director Don Wooton also praised the fire department. “I think everybody did their job. We’ve always had an excellent fire department, but I’ve never had the opportunity of working with them and they certainly are (excellent),” stated Wooton. The street department was also praised for its clean up efforts after the storm. Leemon presented a bill to the town board for $51.71 for radio service. The board voted to accept and pay the bill. The board also voted to purchase radio equipment for the police department. Fay Hollar referred a legal notice that had recently appeared in the newspaper. She asked why the town board was going to appropriate $50,000 from the cumulative sewer fund. ClerkTreasurer Maria Lozano explained the money had to be appropriated in order to pay sewer construction and street repair bills that should have been paid in 1979. Since the bills should have been paid last year, the money to cover the bills had not been included in the 1980 budget. The board explained that appropriating the money from the cumulative sewer fund was the only way the bills could be paid. Mrs. Hollar said she was very interested in the town’s finances and reminded the board of several small towns in Michigan that have gone broke. “I’m very touchy about this cumulative sewer fund. I’ve been paying into it for years," she stated. Mrs. Hollar was invited to inspect the town’s books at any time. The board then voted to appropriate the $50,000 from the accumulative sewer fund and to appropriate $1,200 for the clerktreasurer’s salary and schooling. The Milford Town Board adjourned its regular meeting at 9:00 p.m. and began working on next year’s budget.

""FAMILY NIGHT" The late Senator Charles W. Tobey, outspoken member of the Senate's Crime Investigation Committee, called for a return to family worship in American homes as a paramount means of combating juvenile delinquency. Said he, "A return to the old custom of family worship in American homes would do much to combat juvenile delinquency. It is an acknowledged fact that most of these unfortunate youngsters come from broken homes and poor environment’ but good American parents, in addition to providing the right kind of homes for their children, must make it their business to know intimately the conditions that prevail around the schools which they attend, and all the people that children associate with. "The great weakness, as I see it, is the fact that the American home and the American church have lost a large degree of their influence. What we need is a revival of the applications of the life and teachings of the Master of men." Shoe-Leather Faith wi aii ’B| • Sunday School — 9:30 A.M. • Morning Worship Services — -► wNH 10:30 A.M.
