Residents Reminded to Be Vigilant about Protecting Themselves from Mosquitoes

All residents are urged to continue taking personal precautions to protect against mosquito-borne illnesses, including Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) and West Nile virus (WNV). These include using insect repellent, covering exposed skin when outside, and avoiding outdoor activities between the hours of dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are at their most active.

Find out if mosquitoes in your area have been found to have Eastern Equine Encephalitis or West Nile Virus.

Local Mosquito Control Projects and Boards of Health are working on mosquito control efforts including ground-based spraying. See the current risk level for your town.
