Things you might not know… 🐾

Behind every call is a story—an animal in need, a worried family, a situation that isn’t always easy.
Our Animal Care Officers show up with compassion, patience, and dedication, even in the toughest moments.

That’s why this week, we celebrate them.

Ever wondered what our Harlingen Animal Care Officers do all day? It’s so much more than you think. They are true champions for our community, and we are so grateful for their hard work. 💖

From ensuring our streets are safe for evening walks to helping families reunite with their lost four-legged best friends, our ACOs are on the front lines, day in and day out. They provide emergency rescue, investigate cruelty cases, and connect animals in need with life-saving care.

Let’s work together for a safer, healthier community. Let's give a shout-out to our incredible Animal Care Services team.

Mosquito prevention starts in our own backyards. Protect your family and neighbors by taking a few minutes this week to eliminate standing water on your property.

Here are the top five areas to check around your home:
✔️ Gutters & Roofs: Ensure they are unclogged and draining properly.
✔️ Containers: Empty flower pots, pet bowls, and buckets daily.
✔️ Debris: Properly dispose of old tires and keep trash bins covered.
✔️ Bird Baths: Refresh the water at least once a week.
✔️ Plants: Check bromeliads, palm fronds, and tree holes for trapped water.

Together, we can reduce the mosquito population in Harlingen. If you require assistance, please call Vector Control at (956) 216-5220.
