The states spring rockfish season begins this Saturday, April 16, and anglers are encouraged to set out for
the Chesapeake Bay. Calvert County is home to the bays
largest charter boat fleet that is guided by experienced boat
captains standing by to help fishing enthusiasts reel in the

Residents Asked
to Reduce Mosquito
Population by Eliminating
Standing Water
The best way to prevent mosquito bites
and mosquito-borne diseases is to get rid of
their breeding habitats. In preparation for
the upcoming mosquito season, the Calvert
County Department of General Services
Mosquito Control Program asks residents
to assist in the control of the pests by inspecting their yards and eliminating standing water.
Any area or container that holds water
for a week or more has the potential to
produce hundreds or even thousands of
mosquitoes. The county Mosquito Control
Program team urges residents to take the
following steps to help reduce the mosquito
population:
Drain or dump water from tarps, buckets and flower pots.
Keep roof gutters free of leaves and
other debris.
Fill in tree stump holes from blown
over trees as soon as possible.
Dispose of cans, plastic containers and
anything else that can hold water.
Cover or drill holes in recycling con-

If you squeeze the soil and water comes out, it is too saturated
If you squeeze the soil and it crumbles apart in your hand, the soil is too dry
If you squeeze the soil and it stays in formation and no water comes out, it is ideal
