Even though summer is almost over, Hastings and Prince Edward Public Health is reminding you to protect yourself from mosquitoes.

Public Health says, so far this year, it has found 14 positive pools of mosquitoes carrying the West Nile virus in its region.

None have been found in North Hastings.

The health unit is reminding you that mosquitoes are most active at dusk and dawn.

It’s important for those who are outside at these times to wear light-coloured, long-sleeved shirts and long pants, socks, and hats, along with insect repellent.
