The Northwest Mosquito Abatement District is a governmental special district established in 1956 to protect public health by conducting surveillance and control of mosquitoes in the northwest suburbs of Cook County, Illinois. Covering an area of approximately 242 square miles, the district is dedicated to preventing the spread of diseases such as West Nile Virus and Zika by providing information on risk levels, offering weekly updates, and promoting effective ways to protect oneself from mosquito bites.

With a focus on community safety, the Northwest Mosquito Abatement District advises individuals to avoid outdoor activities during peak mosquito activity, wear protective clothing, use insect repellent, eliminate standing water, and create wind barriers to deter mosquitoes. By following these preventive measures, residents can significantly reduce the risk of mosquito-borne illnesses. For additional information and resources on mosquito control, the district offers links to national and state mosquito control associations on their website.
