Weed and Pest Update

Summer is rapidly coming to an end, bringing cooler temperatures and the feel of fall in the air. Although the summer is nearly over, Crook County Weed and Pest continues to stay busy into the fall months in the office and in the field.

To date, the district crew has treated over 620 acres of weeds in Crook County, covering and protecting over 16,000 acres of land. These numbers will continue to rise into the fall months as treatments will continue as long as the weather holds out.

Leafy spurge will continue to be treated by the district until snow flies and/or the leafy spurge stops growing....
