🦟This week, the Pennsylvania Skeeter Meter is high due to frequent West Nile Activity.

🦟In Mercer County, there have been three positive West Nile samples.

🦟It is important to control mosquitoes around your home by dumping, draining, and drying any stagnant water where mosquitoes can live.

🦟Personal protection like long sleeves, pants and insect repellants are a great way to avoid bites!
