"Northern California's Wet Weather Provides Relief from Mosquitoes"

Recent warm and dry weather in Northern California has caused early-season mosquitoes to emerge from hibernation, leading to a spike in mosquito activity. The Sacramento-Yolo Mosquito and Vector Control District has reported an increase in mosquito-related calls due to the aggressive and biting mosquitoes. Relief is expected with the forecast of wet weather, which will drive the mosquitoes back into hiding. Residents are advised to wear long sleeves and pants, use mosquito repellent, and drain standing water to prevent future mosquito breeding.
