The City of Harlingen Health Department’s Vector Control team continues working to help reduce mosquito populations and protect the health of our community. One of our ongoing efforts includes applying larvicide to standing water where mosquitoes may breed, helping stop them before they become biting adults.

💧 See standing water on a Harlingen street or roadway? Help us keep our community safe by reporting it to the Harlingen Health Department at (956) 216-5220.

Your reports and cooperation help us identify areas that may need attention. Thank you for being part of our efforts to keep Harlingen healthier and safer! 💙
