Just a heads-up: our mosquito control team is still spraying every Thursday evening, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. The Communications Department is still sending out social media reminders to keep you in the loop.

Because of all the rain we’ve had lately, the city added another spraying session each week to help keep those mosquitoes at bay. For example, the vendor sprayed twice during the week of May 18 after the big downpour. The city is planning to keep this up whenever there’s a lot of rain.

Also, the city’s public works department is teaming up with the vendor to switch to a regular twice-weekly spraying schedule from now until July.

Time to gather the items your family needs to survive a possible hurricane.

Not breaking news in our area:

Texas wildlife officials are warning residents about a growing invasive animal problem spreading across huge parts of the state… and no, it’s not coyotes screaming outside somebody’s ranch house at 2 AM or another armadillo playing dead in the middle of a county road. 🐗🌵💀

Wild feral hog populations are becoming a massive problem across rural Texas, especially near ranchland, river bottoms, mesquite thickets, pine forests, farmland, and isolated backroads where these animals can move for miles completely unnoticed. 😳
And these things are NOT just “wild pigs.”

We’re talking:
• 300+ pound feral hogs
• razor-sharp tusks
• terrifying speed for something built like a refrigerator
• aggressive behavior when cornered
• and enough strength to destroy crops, fences, feeders, and entire fields overnight. 💀
Texas wildlife officials say the destruction happens FAST.
Pastures ripped apart. Water troughs destroyed. Mud everywhere. Hay fields shredded. Fences bent sideways. Entire sections of ranchland looking like somebody dragged a plow through them at 3 AM. 😭
Meanwhile Texans are reporting:
• massive tracks crossing muddy creek beds
• loud crashing sounds moving through brush after dark
• and trail cameras capturing giant hogs wandering across Texas property lines like they pay taxes there. 🐗🌵
And somewhere in Texas right now:
• a deer feeder just got absolutely annihilated overnight
• somebody walked outside expecting whitetails and instead locked eyes with a tusked tank standing beside the fence line
• and one rancher is currently staring into the darkness whispering: “That definitely ain’t a deer.” 💀
The scariest part?
These animals reproduce FAST.
A small population can explode before landowners even realize how many are out there, which is why Texas wildlife agencies are urging residents to report sightings immediately before populations spread even further across the state.
Officials continue warning Texans:
• do NOT approach them
• do NOT feed them
• and absolutely do NOT underestimate how dangerous they can be.

Because Texas was built for cattle, whitetails, longhorns, and wide-open ranchland…not armored lawnmowers with tusks sprinting through the brush at 30 mph. 🐗🌵💀
