West Nile Virus Update
Additional West Nile Positive Mosquitoes Found in the San Fernando Valley Communities
|
|
West Nile Virus is a virus transmitted to humans and animals through the bite of an infected mosquito. Infected individuals develop symptoms such as headache, fever, skin rash, nausea and body aches, but cases lasting for several days to months can be life-threatening. Unfortunately, there is no known vaccine to prevent, or medication to cure West Nile Virus.
On July 27, 2018, the Greater Los Angeles County Vector Control District reported two mosquito samples collected from the San Fernando Valley communities of Sherman Oaks and Porter Ranch and five samples from Panorama City tested positive for West Nile Virus.
Remember to be cautious of possible mosquito breeding sites. Find and eliminate their breeding sources by dumping and draining stagnant water, and tossing out unused containers in and out of your home.
|
|
The County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health is looking to increase awareness and promote prevention practices to reduce the risk of West Nile Virus in our community and across the County. Join the effort by participating in the
2018 Champion for West Nile Virus Prevention
Challenge!

A year-round California wildfire season is now the "new normal." Eight of the 20 most destructive California wildfires happened in the last three years. One of which is the 2017 Thomas Fire that took place in December - a month not usually known to have a destructive fire occur.
Furthermore, Southern California Edison (SCE) has taken the necessary measures to reduce the risks of these wildfires from harming homes, lives, and our economy.
SCE continues to ensure the public's safety while maintaining the reliability of their system through:
- Operational Practices
- System Hardening
- Engineering Advances
- Vegetation Management
- Situational Awareness

Save your energy during the Summer - you're probably already drained as it is. Cool down by dunking your feet in cold water before bed.

Sign Your House is Vulnerable to Being Robbed
Your garbage cans… Setting out the box from your new 60-inch HDTV or high-end gaming console on the curb is basically advertising the fact that those items are in your home. As electronics are the second thing burglars go for (cash is number one), this makes your home a very attractive target, according to the study. So buy a cheap box cutter and invest the 30 seconds it takes to break down large boxes and bundle them together so their labels cannot be seen.
