Worthington Springs sits along FL-121 in Union County where the natural mineral springs feed sloughs and hardwood hammocks that hold standing water through the humid subtropical summers.
Mosquito pressure here comes from the river floodplain and shaded sloughs rather than backyard containers, so treatments focus on the edges of the springs and older homes with deep porches that line the quiet roads.
Technicians based in Brooksville travel north on FL-121 to reach Worthington Springs and the nearby towns of Lake Butler and Raiford, timing visits around the mild winters and peak summer humidity.

Mosquito Control in Worthington Springs — Local Notes
- •River floodplain and spring outflows create persistent breeding sites that extend beyond individual lots into hammock shade.
- •Older homes with deep porches sit close to sloughs, giving mosquitoes sheltered flight paths at dusk.
- •FL-121 provides the main access corridor; crews stage equipment along this route when treating the Worthington Springs area.
- •Mild winters allow year-round activity, but hot humid summers drive the heaviest pressure from the springs and adjacent wetlands.
