• West Nile Virus Cases Grow In Active Mosquito Year: What To Know In IL (patch.com) — Mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus were first detected in Northbrook in June, part of a surge that has pushed Illinois case counts higher than in decades. Health officials urge residents to dump standing water, maintain yards, and use targeted larvicides or repellents, since there is no human vaccine and warm, wet weather is extending mosquito season.
