It’s West Nile time: State health officials collected a sample in Clinton County – tested positive. No human cases this year. However, the Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) expects WNV activity to continue across the state during mosquito season, which continues through the first hard freeze.

Apply an EPA-registered insect repellent containing DEET, more tips at www.health.in.gov.
