8/17/18 @ 3:05 p.m. - Attached is a Press Release from the Florida Department of Health reminding residents to take precautionary measures to prevent mosquito-borne illness. As you are probably aware, there is no designated County funding for mosquito control spraying, however you can prevent bites by using repellents containing DEET and by following the steps listed in the attached statement from the Department of Health. Additionally, there are various products available for purchase at your local hardware store that can help eliminate mosquitoes on your personal property such as sprays, mosquito magnets, and insect eliminators.

If you have any questions, please contact Ronnie Nessler of the Nassau County Department of Health at (904) 875-6100 or via email at Ronald.Nessler@flhealth.gov.

Now in its sixth year of publication, the FAC Calendar photo contest has been a huge success with over 700 entries last year alone. Nassau County has been fortunate enough to be featured twice: once in 2014 for a photo of the Florida House Inn submitted by former County employee, Shanea Jones; and again in 2018 for a photo of Egans Creek submitted by resident Mark Delfs.

If you would like to enter this year's contest, please visit FAC's website. Please note that there is no limit on the number of photos you can submit however to be considered for publication, your photo must be at least 3000 pixels / 300 DPI. The deadline to submit photos is Friday, September 7th. The winners will be announced in November during FAC's Legislative Conference. If a photo from Nassau County is selected, we will share that information here as well.

Good luck!
