Shout out to Western Plains Public Health for this great prevention message!
Mosquito season is here! Prevent West Nile and don't let bites put a damper on your summer plans.
Whether you're enjoying a backyard barbecue, camping, or spending time at the lake, take a few simple steps to protect yourself and your family:
✅ Use EPA-registered insect repellent
✅ Wear long sleeves and pants when possible
✅ Dump standing water around your home
✅ Be extra cautious during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active
A little prevention can go a long way in reducing bites and the diseases mosquitoes can carry.
