For Third Week In A Row, West Nile Mosquitos Found In Warminster

For the third week in a row, mosquitos have tested positive for West Nile virus in Warminster, according to information from the PA West Nile Control Program.

On Monday, state officials reported a positive sample in Warminster. Last week, state officials reported two positive samples in Warminster. The week before, positive samples were reported on Friday and Monday.

No sprays have been announced as of Monday afternoon. A spray was held last week in Warwick.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, West Nile is transmitted via mosquitos and there are currently no medications to treat or vaccines to prevent WNV infection.

The best thing residents can do is get rid of standing water where mosquitoes can breed on their property, according to experts.
