Episode Details

West Nile virus has officially arrived in Lubbock’s mosquito population — and the city’s Vector Control team is already on high alert. They’re targeting breeding grounds before they become problems, treating shallow water spots where larvae thrive and spraying adult mosquitoes to break the cycle. Coordinator Steven Boston warns that even a tiny puddle can spawn thousands of mosquitoes — and stressed that residents can help by eliminating standing water in their yards. With summer ahead, the city’s goal is clear: keep mosquito numbers low and prevent a major outbreak.
