Green Pools These target
pools are likely mosquito producers. They are translucent and range from green
to black in color.
Half Empty
Green This is a pool that has any amount of water less than full. Despite
the label, the water may be brown, yellow, or green. There may be visible
sludge in the pool. These are particularly hazardous since they are excellent
breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
Empty Pools This is a
pool that has no water, sludge, or visible residue. Any water that collects,
if not drained, can quickly lead to mosquitoes. Another hazard that empty
pools pose is that the drainage system may contain stagnant water that is not
visible from the air.
Murky Pools This is a
pool that will be turning green within 1-2 weeks. There is only slight
discoloration and is usually bluish green. The bottom of the pool may be
difficult to see and shadows from surrounding objects become fuzzy when
projected through the water onto pool walls.
Questionable This
is a pool that does not fall under other categories but may need inspection.
It may have a dark bottom or look potentially indistinguishable from a healthy
lawn.
Reservoir This may be
a swale pond or other reservoir that is completely green.
Beaver Dams Some
counties have targeted broad areas where beavers create environmental damage.
