Zika Virus: What It Is and Why It’s A Threat 

The Zika virus has spread from Africa and Asia to the Western Hemisphere. For approximately two years, the virus has been
spreading from Brazil and is quickly branching out in all directions, particularly toward parts of the United States.

The Zika virus presents itself much like a cold or flu with symptoms that last a little over a week, but it has been declared an international public health emergency by the World Health Organization because of its various links to birth defects (including brain damage).

What Does This Mean for South Florida? 

The U.S. and South Florida is vulnerable to this virus on two fronts:

• Residents who travel to virus-saturated areas are contracting the infection and bringing it back into the United States. South Florida is prone to transmission because our area is such a large travel destination.
• The Aedes aegypti mosquito is the primary carrier of the Zika virus and is already prevalent in the southern United States. In 2016 sections of Miami were a recommended no visit zone. On the west coast of Florida, Naples had reported cases of Zika Virus infected people.

Regardless, with our help at Mister Mosquitoes, all types of mosquitoes can be killed including mosquitoes carrying the Zika virus!

Mister Mosquitoes Eliminates Mosquitoes That Carry Zika Virus 

To reduce mosquito populations and their possible bites the Florida Department of Health lists these common best practices:

• Cover your skin with clothing and use mosquito repellent
• Drain standing water from garbage cans, gutters, toys, flower pots or any place water has collected
• Cover doors and windows with screens to keep mosquitoes out

Since there is currently no cure or vaccination for the Zika virus, the only available precaution is to control the carrier, the mosquito.
