Mosquitoes are pesky, too
Everyone's talking about swine flu but don't forget about West Nile.
Last week, a 71-year-old Rancho Cucamonga resident came down with the infection, becoming the first West Nile human victim in the county this year. She is recovering and expected to live.
According to the West Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District, 50 mosquito samples, 13 dead birds and five sentinel chickens have been tested positive for the virus in the area. Don't forget to dump out standing water and wear mosquito repellent when you're outdoors.
Give West Valley a call to report green pools or other mosquito problems.
