The Health Risks of Mosquito Bites
Although you can avoid mosquito bites by staying indoors, using insect repellents on skin and clothing, and wearing long pants and shirts, these measures can interfere with your enjoyment of the warmest months of the year. However, mosquito bites can cause much more than just itchy welts. These disease-carrying insects can pose a serious risk to both people and pets.
What Diseases Can Mosquitoes Carry?
Mosquitoes can be vectors of a range of diseases, including:
- West Nile virus
- Encephalitis
- Zika virus
- Malaria
- Dengue
- Canine heartworm
How to Protect Your Family from Mosquitoes
Unfortunately, it is impossible to tell if mosquitoes are carrying disease just by looking at them. The best way to protect your family and reduce mosquito populations is a combination of adulticides that kill adult mosquitoes and larvicides that prevent larvae from becoming biting adults.
