mosquitoes

With all of the rain we're getting, prepare to do battle with mosquitos.

West Nile virus has been detected in Texas already in 2024.

We have to deal with the deadliest creature in the area. No, it's not rattlesnakes, coyotes, rabid animals, or even an angry fox. It is a minuscule, tiny creature that wants to kill you.

Let's face it, mosquitoes are a nuisance and they carry disease. Name one person that likes mosquitos (I'm not even sure PETA does).

Don't let these annoyances ruin your summer

With summer here, that usually means lots of mosquitoes.  And now, the City of Amarillo’s Public Health department has received confirmation that the Zika virus is here.

There have been 19 confirmed cases of Zika in Texas this year.

The City of Amarillo is beginning a program called "Mission Mosquitoes" to help alert the public to the dangers of getting bitten by mosquitoes.

The little-known Chikungunya virus, which has no vaccine, has been confirmed in the continental United States. Here's what you should know.
