- Mosquitoes
- Mosquito
bites can cause severe skin irritation through an allergic
reaction, as well as, the transmission of certain serious
diseases such as malaria, dengue fever and several forms
of encephalitis. Not only can mosquitoes carry diseases
which afflict humans, but they also can transmit several
diseases and parasites that are very susceptible to dogs
and horses. These include dog heart worms and eastern
equine encephalitis. The Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and the Virginia
Dept. of Health (VDH) recommend taking steps to control
mosquitoes around your home.
