The threat of West Nile Virus continues to be present here in
San Mateo County. In an effort to alert the residents of
the county of San Mateo about the still present threat from
West Nile Virus, the San Mateo County Mosquito Abatement
District has asked each city council to help publicize West
Nile Virus and Mosquito and Vector Control Awareness Week
— April 24 through April 30 by adopting a resolution
modeled after Senate Concurrent Resolution 126 (Keane).
Various associations have come together to control the spread
of invasive Spartina, or cordgrass, which has contributed to
this summer’s mosquito population.
