On 23 April 1992 the Medical Entomology Branch received a complaint about large numbers of mosquitoes at Five Mile, Daly River. The complainant, Fr Allen Kinnane, requested advice on prevention measures that might be taken. On April 28 the Medical Entomology Branch was notified by Fr Kinnane that mosquitoes were no longer a large problem following burning off in the area. Nevertheless two officers from the branch travelled to Daly River on 29 April to investigate the complaint and advise on appropriate measures to reduce mosquito problems in the future.
