Mosquito Forecast

For November 9th - 15th 2026

 

Generally, the mosquito populations in our region have already begun to fall during this time of year. However, warm temperatures have kept mosquitoes active, and the number
of mosquitoes caught have actually risen over the last two weeks. Thus, it appears that until we experience some true cold weather, mosquito populations will continue to persist
in our area. There are no recent additions to our 2026 arbovirus surveillance to report and we stand at 41 West Nile virus positive mosquito samples and three sentinel chickens
positive for West Nile antibodies. If you wish to receive notifications of upcoming aerial adulticide missions in your region of the county, please register on the Smart911 system at: https://www.smart911.com/smart911/ref/reg.action?pa=chathamcounty.
