The spraying will take place Monday, Sept. 8, between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Targeted neighborhoods in the Bronx include Clason Point, Castle Hill, Harding Park, Soundview, Schuylerville and Throgs Neck and Unionport.
In the event of inclement weather, the spraying will be postponed until Tuesday, Sept. 9, during the same hours.
