There was a thread here in the last 1/2 hour, which was closed & now disappeared, claiming dispersants were being sprayed near Seagrove?

Where? By whom? From what type of craft? What made the poster believe that was what was being sprayed?

South Walton Mosquito Control uses Pyrethrum to control adult mosquitoes with our spray trucks. Pyrethrum is a botanical insecticide produced primarily from the flowers of Tanacetum cinerariaefolium, which is a species of the chrysanthemum plant family. It is found mainly in tiny oil-containing glands on the surface of the seed case in the tightly packed flower head and is the plant’s own insecticide that has evolved to keep insects away. Pyrethrum is made up of six complex chemical esters known as pyrethrins that work in combination to repel and kill insects.
