Anopheles freeborni mosquitoes don't spread disease in the county and behave different than West Nile virus spreading mosquitoes. Prevent mosquito bites with an EPA-registered repellent, wear long sleeves and pants and keep doors and windows closed.
Our staff works hard to protect public health in Placer County through community-wide vector surveillance, prevention and control services for mosquitoes, ticks and yellowjackets.
