Mosquito Alert

Over the last 25 days the Chicago land area has experienced the 7th wettest period in 136 years. Some areas have gotten over 13 inches of rain.

This creates an environmental situation where we are going to get an unprecedented number of floodwater mosquitoes emerging over the next few weeks. Since soils are saturated and the water does not recede as quickly the areas that have either been treated and the new "over flow" areas can't keep up with the normal protection that Clarke Mosquito offers the village.

The village sprayed late last week and will continually monitor the situation and do what it takes to stay ahead of the curve!
