Swimmer's Itch

There have been reported cases of swimmer's itch in Detroit Lakes this season (2025). The City Beach area will be treated two times this year. Swimmer's Itch was treated June 24. The second date is scheduled for August 12. There are no restrictions as to swimming, drinking water, domestic uses, fish consumption, irrigation, or livestock watering with this treatment. There are no guarantees that swimmer's itch is completely eliminated by these treatments. Treatments only lessen the immediate hosts. Please use caution when swimming.
