But with rain, it does come with standing water and a place for mosquitoes, with that, it could come with West Nile virus. Mosquitoes are annoying insects that we deal with in the Spring and Summer. A bite can lead to more than itchy skin.

The district encourages people to check areas around their home for anything that can hold water, as this is where you will find the insects.

Three mosquito pools have tested positive for West Nile virus in Dallas-area ZIP codes as of Thursday afternoon. The first mosquito pool was reported in Irving’s 75061 ZIP code on Wednesday. The following day, Richardson‘s 75080 ZIP code and Rowlett‘s 75088 also reported positive results of West Nile virus in tested mosquito pools.
