Fight the Bite!

It's summer time! The sun is out, days are longer, nights are warmer and mosquito's are flying.

Utah County's Mosquito Abatement is working hard to control the mosquito populations

but there are things we can do to protect ourselves and our kids.


1. Remember that mosquitoes carrying West Nile Virus are most often out at dawn and dusk. 

2. Use bug spray for you and your kids when you are outside in the early mornings and evenings, even in your own backyard!


3. Clean up items at home that may provide perfect nesting areas for mosquito's. 

4. If you notice a high amount of mosquito's contact the Utah County Mosquito Abatement through their online request form to have them come and check it out.
