From Denton County Public Health:

Denton County Public Health (DCPH) is reporting four positive West Nile Virus (WNV) mosquito traps in unincorporated Denton County. The positive mosquito traps are located in the following unincorporated areas:
• east of Argyle and west of Copper Canyon
• east of Little Elm and west of Prosper
• south of Hackberry and west of Frisco
• north of Providence Village

Locations will be fogged three times beginning Saturday, September 27, 2025, through Saturday, October 4, 2025, weather permitting. Truck-based ultra-low volume fogging will occur between the hours of 9 PM and 5 AM.
DCPH advises residents to take the following steps to minimize risk of contracting WNV:
• Drain standing water in your yard and neighborhood to minimize mosquito breeding sites such as bird baths, flowerpots, and clogged rain gutters. Consider the use of BTI briquettes, often called mosquito dunks, in standing water that cannot be eliminated.
• Dress in long sleeves and pants when you are outside and spray thin clothing with repellent.
• Defend yourself by using EPA-registered repellent. Check for ingredients like DEET, Picaridin, or Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus.

Detailed maps of fog areas are located on the DCPH West Nile Virus website at DentonCounty.gov/WNV, along with additional information including mosquito maps, latest news, and facts about WNV. Residents in the affected area are being informed via emergency alerts and signage.
