Why low-flying planes will be in the area this month
(WKBN) – Rabies baits will be dropped from the sky this month as part of a vaccination effort targeting wildlife. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Wildlife Services, in collaboration with the Ohio Department of Health and county health departments, are distributing the oral rabies vaccines (ORV) to targeted wild animals, such as raccoons, that eat the baits and are then vaccinated against rabies. ORV baits are distributed using small airplanes and helicopters from the air and vehicles on the ground. Throughout the month of May, approximately 744,300 ORV baits will be distributed in eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Those in Columbiana, Mahoning and Trumbull counties may see low-flying airplanes or helicopters distributing the baits from May 12-24. Distribution by vehicles will be in Hubbard, Salem, Warren and Youngstown. Past information provided by the USDA on the drops has stated that the baits are safe if pets get into them, but people are told to leave them undisturbed, if possible. If a pet eats several baits, it is possible that they will cause some vomiting and diarrhea. More information on the program is available on the USDA's website. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Rabies prevention efforts underway in Jefferson County
WATERTOWN, N.Y. (WWTI) – The Jefferson County Public Health Service (JCPHS) announced that the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Wildlife Services program (USDA-WS) will distribute oral rabies vaccine (ORV) baits in Jefferson County to prevent the spread of raccoon rabies. Two rabid raccoons found in Jefferson County This bait distribution occurs annually in August, but an additional drop will happen in northern Jefferson County due to ongoing rabies cases. Areas along the St. Lawrence River, Watertown, and LeRay will receive additional baits. Distribution is set for May 12 to 14, using aerial and ground methods. Each bait is designed to attract animals and vaccinate them against rabies. Weather affects bait distribution, and bad weather might cause an extended distribution. To get animals to eat the bait, each vaccine-containing bait comes in a plastic blister pack coated in a sweet attractant. Coyotes, foxes, skunks, and raccoons who consume the bait get vaccinated against rabies, which helps prevent the disease's spread. If you find an ORV bait, follow these simple steps: Leave bait alone, unless it is in a lawn or driveway; children should not touch it. If intact baits are found where children or pets play, pick them up with paper towels/gloves and toss them into a brushy or forested area. If the bait is broken, the liquid should be visible. Use gloves to put the bait in a plastic bag. Cover the bait with a 1:10 bleach dilution and wipe affected areas with bleach solution. Put the cleaning materials in a bag and throw them in your regular garbage. Wash your skin with soap and water if you touch a bait. Call JCPHS at 315-786-3700 for guidance. Do not try to remove the bait from your pet, as it may bite you. The bait is safe for your pet. If multiple baits are eaten, your pet might have an upset stomach. If your pet eats a bait, keep its saliva away from your eyes, mucous membranes, or skin lesions for 24 hours. Jefferson County reports third rabid raccoon case this year In the event that a pet or wild animal bites you, you should always report the incident to JCPHS or your healthcare professional. Maintain your pets' current rabies vaccinations as well. Spring rabies vaccination clinics are being held by JCPHS at Jefferson County Dog Control on Thursday, May 15, from 5 to 7 p.m. and Thursday, June 19, from 5 to 7 p.m. Additional details are available online.

USDA to distribute rabies vaccine for wildlife in Tennessee, Virginia
TENNESSEE/VIRGINIA (WJHL) — The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Tennessee Department of Health and the Virginia Department of Health will distribute oral rabies vaccine (ORV) baits for wildlife in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. The bait distribution program aims to prevent the westward movement of rabies, mostly spread by raccoons, the USDA said in a news release. Nominate: Tri-Cities Best Sweet Tea The smell of the ORV baits attracts wild animals, the USDA said. The animals then eat the bait and are vaccinated against rabies. The baits will be distributed using small airplanes, helicopters and vehicles in the following Northeast Tennesse and Southwest Virignia areas starting April 2 and lasting around two weeks: Carter County Greene County Johnson County Sullivan County Unicoi County Washington County, Tennessee Washington County, Virginia Bristol, Tennessee Bristol, Virginia Elizabethton Erwin Johnson City Mountain City Russell County Smyth County Abingdon 'The vaccine baits have been proven safe in many species of animals, including domestic dogs and cats,' the USDA said in the release. 'Humans and pets cannot get rabies from contact with the baits but are asked to leave them undisturbed should they encounter them. If contact with baits occurs, immediately rinse the contact area with warm water and soap.' According to the USDA, more than 400,000 and 230,000 baits will be distributed in Tennessee and Virginia, respectively. ORV baiting usually takes place during the fall but was postponed in 2024 due to Hurricane Helene, the USDA said. For more information, call 1-866-4USDA-WS (1-866-487-397) or click here.
