## Resource

West Nile virus is buzzing back in Lubbock and West Texas—health officials confirm it’s in the mosquito population, especially after recent rains created perfect breeding grounds. Eliminate standing water (even in bottle caps), use mosquito dunks for water features, and protect yourself with repellent, long sleeves, and screened windows. City crews are spraying, but your help matters—report hotspots via the city’s vector control site. Stay vigilant, stay safe.
