The rain locally has been off the charts the past few months. The standing water and floods according to IDPH will bring some nasty "flood water" mosquitoes.

From WIFR if the flood waters sit for more than 10 days, that can produce large numbers of mosquitos. With these large number of nasty, annoying, mosquitoes...they can also travel up to 10 miles!
