Mosquito Control

The City of Henderson works closely with the Southern Nevada Health District to monitor mosquitos and treat as needed. Authorities have noticed an increase in West Nile Virus cases in parts of the Las Vegas Valley. When outdoors, wear long sleeves and use repellent and drain standing water. Get more tips at the Southern Nevada Health District website.
