Description
The curbing at this address has not drained properly for years. i have sent this complaint to you for two years, It is not only a mosquito problem, but a slip and fall hazard and a liability to the county for people walking because we do not have sidewalks and it always holds water. please do not just spray, but fix the actual problem as it will just reoccur. The picture is mosquito larva living on this curb.

A service request about the mosquito problem in your area has been entered into our system; our technician should be there within one working day depending on their work load. They will inspect the property and surrounding neighborhood to determine the source of the problem and will take the necessary action to correct the problem; whenever possible we try to target mosquitoes in the aquatic juvenile stage to control them at the source.
If we cannot get into the property due to locked gates, then please check for anything that may be holding rainwater as mosquitoes will breed in containers as small as a bottle cap. We’ll be checking the area surrounding the property for anything that may be contributing to the problem, and will take the necessary steps to eliminate or treat the source.
If you are at the property when the technician arrives, please take the opportunity to talk to them about your concerns. If you are not at the property when they arrive, a card will be left providing you with detailed information on our handling of your request.
If there are any other questions or concerns you may have please call us at 727- 464-7503 or visit our website at: http://www.pinellascounty.org/publicworks/mosquito/default.html

In addition to mosquito breeding ground it is damaging the street.
It pools water so bad it creates a puddle into the street as well, the asphalt is beginning to be damaged and potholed from constant water.

I am a neighbor and this is more than a mosquito problem--the road needs to be fixed as it is not draining properly. I walk my dogs by there and several times I have almost slipped and fallen.
