Section 13

The Commissioner or a Medical Officer of Health may require the spraying, with any form of insecticide he may think fit, of any pond, well, pool or other body of water or any premises or vessel or any stable, pigsty, cattle shed, chicken coop or other place or structure used for the shelter of animals, and may, if he considers it necessary, either carry out the spraying after giving due notice to the owner or occupier thereof or require the owner or occupier to carry out the spraying.

Any person removing or rendering less effective any insecticide so sprayed or refusing, failing or neglecting to comply with any requisition made in pursuance of subsection (1) shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $1,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 months, and in the case of a second or subsequent conviction to a fine not exceeding $2,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or to both.
