West Nile Mosquitoes Found Again in Chicago
Published 3 days, 3 hours ago
Description
Mosquitoes in Wilmette tested positive for West Nile virus — the third confirmed batch this season in the Chicago area. Officials say human risk remains low, as no cases have been reported yet, and transmission requires a bite from an infected mosquito. With West Nile active annually in Illinois since 2001, experts urge everyone to eliminate standing water around their homes to prevent breeding grounds.
