Poor weather or wind may cause treatments to be postponed with little advance notice. Up-to-date information is available at 1 866 917-5999 and online at: www.gov.bc.ca/gypsymoth

People who wish to minimize their exposure should remain indoors with their windows and doors closed during the spraying, and for at least 30 minutes after.
