TAUNTON, Mass. (WPRI) - A second round of aerial mosquito spraying is set to begin Monday night in six Southeastern Massachusetts communities.

Health officials ordered the spraying after additional mosquitos in Easton and neighboring areas tested positive for Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE).

Spraying will take place in Bridgewater, Easton, Norton, Raynham, Taunton and West Bridgewater.

Residents are urged to shut windows and to keep pets indoors during spraying.
