ound in Ward 3
Peel Health's viral testing laboratory has advised my office that adult mosquito traps located in the vicinity of
Burnhamthorpe Rd E and Ponytrail Dr and Golden Orchard Dr and Dixie Rd have
produced positive results for West Nile Virus.
Attached is information on personal protective measures such as avoiding areas and times of the day when there is a higher probability of being bitten by mosquitoes, wearing light coloured clothing that covers vulnerable parts of the body, and using insect repellent containing DEET. The advisory also contains informaton about reducing potential mosquito breeding sites on private property
