Grand Forks and East Grand Forks will spray for mosquitoes Thursday from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Mosquito control trucks can be identified by flashing yellow lights as they travel.

The Grand Forks Health Department encourages residents to wear insect repellant containing DEET, limit outdoor activities between dusk and dawn, wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts when possible and eliminate standing water to help fight mosquitoes and protect against West Nile virus.
