Fight the Bite
The most important thing residents can do to reduce the risk of exposure to West Nile virus is to eliminate mosquito-breeding areas around the home and limit exposure to feeding mosquitoes. Many female mosquitoes can lay 100-300 eggs on the surface of fresh or stagnant water every third night during its life span. Here are some simple ways to eliminate potential mosquito breeding sites around the home:
* Do not allow water to accumulate in the saucers of flowerpots, cemetery urns, or in pet dishes for more than two days.
* Get rid of tin cans, old tires, buckets, unused plastic swimming pools, or other containers that collect and hold water.
* Clean debris from rain gutters, remove standing water from flat roofs, and repair leaks around faucets and air conditioners.
* Change the water in birdbaths and wading pools at least once a week.
* Fill or drain puddles, ditches and swampy areas.
* Check for trapped water in plastic or canvas tarps used to cover boats or pools and arrange the tarp to drain the water.
*Make sure you also follow the Four D?s*
* Use insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin or oil of lemon eucalyptus.
* Dress in long sleeves and long pants when you are outside.
* Stay indoors at dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are most active.
* Drain standing water where mosquitoes breed. Common breeding sites include old tires, flowerpots and clogged rain gutters.
Spring will be here before we know it along with West Nile Virus. When Hurst sprays to kill mosquitos, we notify the area using our *CodeRed Notification System*. If you would like to be on that list, please sign up at hursttx.gov/codered.
