Adequate labor was extremely difficult to obtain, and the spray gangs were reduced to two, three, or four men, compared to the six and eight man gangs used in pre-war years. The condition of the county-wide system of ditches, which could not be maintained satisfactorily during the war years, made adequate drainage of many of the salt marshes impossible. In normal years these factors would have resulted in extremely poor control, but the newly developed method of spraying DDT solutions from aircraft proved effective enough to keep the mosquito population below the nuisance point during most of the summer"); Trap Tabulation (with photo "Interior of Garage"; Figure 1 map "Mosquito Trap Locations in Suffolk County"; Figure 2 "Tabulation - Mosquito Species Caught in Suffolk County, N.Y."; Figure 3 "Total Precipitation - Inches of Rainfall"; Figure 4 "Mean Temperature - Degrees Fahrenheit"; Figure 5 "Relationship of Mosquito Species Groups in Suffolk County, 1939-1946"; Figure 6 "Mosquito Trap Catch in Suffolk County, 1939-1946"; photographs: Figure 7 "American Mosquito Control Association Officials Inspecting Spray Plane"; Figure 8 "Aerial Spraying Over 'Cat-tails'"); table Fuel Oil and Larvicides Used in the Field, Maintenance and Operation of Equipment; Storeroom and Shop Report; Budget 1945-1946; Financial Statement.
