Flower Mound once again has tested positive for the West Nile virus, town officials said Friday.
The Flower Mound Environmental Health Services Division confirmed a mosquito sample collected in the 4800 block of Windmill Lane was positive for the West Nile virus and for the safety of their residents, they will be conducting spraying from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Wednesday within a one-half-square-mile radius where the sample was found.
Spraying operations may be rescheduled if weather conditions are not suitable, according to a news release from the town.
Residents in the affected neighborhoods will be notified by the community notification call system and signs placed at major intersections within the spraying area.
Officials advise to avoid exposure to the spray as much as possible.
This is the ninth positive mosquito sample found in the town this year, according to the release.
