Mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus have been detected in areas of Palo Alto. The County of Santa Clara Vector Control District will be conducting mosquito control treatment on Monday, August 26 starting at 10 p.m. in zip codes 94301, 94303, and 94306.

The treatment will take approximately 2-4 hours and will use truck-mounted equipment to help reduce the mosquito population in the area and the risk of West Nile virus.

To check if your home is within the treatment area, click below to view the interactive treatment map and enter your address in the search bar in the top right corner.

Per the County, there is no need to relocate during the adult-mosquito-control treatment, but those who wish to minimize exposure for family members or pets may choose to close windows and remain inside during the scheduled time period. All pesticides used are approved by the Environmental Protection Agency for use in public areas and are widely used by vector control agencies throughout California.

For more information, visit Santa Clara County’s West Nile Virus Activity in the County webpage or call the County of Santa Clara Vector Control District at (408) 282-3114.
