Vector / Bugs

NNPH Vector staff has increased mosquito surveillance and monitoring surrounding Swan Lake in Lemmon Valley. Additional surveillance and monitoring will continue as long as waters are present in the community.
As always, when in areas where mosquitos are present wear protective clothing and limit outdoor activity during early morning and evening times when mosquitos are most active.
