UPDATE: Carson City Health and Human Services (CCHHS) has just announced an urgent mosquito abatement treatment scheduled for the morning of July 23, 2025, in multiple locations, including Anderson/Buzzy Ranch, River View Park, and the Linear Ditch area. This proactive measure aims to combat rising mosquito populations and decrease the risk of mosquito-borne diseases in the region.

Residents are urged to take immediate precautions. CCHHS recommends using insect repellent, removing any standing water around properties, and checking that window and door screens are intact to minimize mosquito bites.
