MOSQUITO PREVENTION REMINDER

Douglass Township recently received notice that a mosquito sample collected in the Township tested positive for West Nile Virus. While the current risk of transmission remains fairly low, we’re sharing a few simple reminders to help residents reduce mosquitoes around their homes and properties.

Remember the 5 D’s of Mosquito Prevention:
DUSK/DAWN | DRESS | DEET | DRAIN | DOORS

A few simple steps can make a big difference in reducing mosquito breeding areas and bites. Take a few minutes to check around your property and remember the 5 D’s!

A big thank you to Gorilla Disposal LLC for their outstanding commitment to our community!

At last night's Board of Supervisors meeting, the Township proudly recognized Gorilla Disposal for donating their time, equipment, and services to collect and properly dispose of 75 illegally dumped tires along Greshville Road.

Illegal dumping of tires and other waste along roadways is prohibited and negatively impacts our environment, creates safety hazards, and places an unnecessary financial burden on our community. Help keep Douglass Township clean by properly disposing of unwanted materials through approved recycling and disposal facilities.

We are incredibly grateful to Gorilla Disposal for stepping up to help restore the area and for their continued commitment to keeping Douglass Township beautiful.

Please join us in thanking Gorilla Disposal for their exceptional community service! 👏♻️

We're proud to share their original post below.
