Spring is finally here! It is safe to say that most of us are glad to see the end of the cold and snow for another year. Even the most avid winter lovers are generally happy to see it end so they can begin the warmer weather outdoor activities that they love, whether that is hiking, swimming, baseball, or just backyard barbecues with family and friends. There are some problems, however, that come every spring and remain a problem until the cold weather kills them off for another season. Mosquitoes!

Since the dawn of time it seems that the mosquito has been a constant companion to any warm-blooded creature that it can find as soon as the weather is warm enough. Every one of us has experienced a warm evening on the patio, a cold drink in one hand, and slapping away at these pesky parasites with the other. The next day, the family is left with itchy, red reminders of the night’s activities that could last for days. These are not the lasting memories that any of us want.

Unfortunately, there are worse things that can come from this battle with the dreaded mosquito. These pests are well-known carriers of several diseases that can impact a family for life. Disease including West Nile virus, yellow fever, Saint Louis encephalitis, and the more recently discovered Zika virus that has made its way from South America to the United States. Many of us do not have these potentially harmful diseases in mind when we sit down on that patio, but that doesn’t make the threat less real.
