Episode Details

West Nile virus has officially arrived in Riverwoods, Illinois — and it’s not staying put. Mosquitoes tested positive in Riverwoods for the first time this year, with other North Shore suburbs like Glenview and Wilmette also reporting cases. While most bites won’t make you sick, symptoms can appear within days if you do get infected. The key? Avoid bites by using repellent, eliminating standing water, keeping your yard clean, and checking screens. Not every mosquito carries the virus — but being proactive is your best defense as mosquito season peaks.
