Spot spraying will take place over the next 2-3 weeks. Spot spraying with a non-selective herbicide is applied to tree rings, landscape beds, and cracks in pavement to control weeds. The applications are completed by state-licensed District staff and the application areas are marked with white flags and are safe to enter once the product has dried.
Staff never apply any herbicides in or near playgrounds. All applications are dependent on pest levels, budget, staff availability, and weather, and as a result, some parks may not receive any applications. For further information regarding pesticide applications please contact the Landscape Supervisor at 630.993.8942.
