Latest News 
As of 10-29-2014, there have been no reported human cases of West Nile Virus (WNV), no positive result in the mosquito traps in Southlake this week along with no positive test results in the region. Even with the absence of positive test results for WNV in Southlake and the region, we want to remind everyone to stay vigilant with your personal preparedness efforts to prevent the spread of WNV by remembering the 4 D's:

1. Drain all freestanding water. This is especially important considering the rain we have received. This is especially important with rain in the forecast. 
2. Dress in long sleeves and in long pants.
3. Dusk/Dawn are the times of day when mosquitoes that carry WNV are most active.
4. DEET - use insect repellent that contains DEET.
