Mosquitoes are not just irritating pests; they pose a significant health threat by carrying diseases like West Nile virus, St. Louis encephalitis virus, and Dengue fever. The alarming findings from 2019, where mosquitoes in Anaheim and Westminster tested positive for St. Louis Encephalitis virus for the first time since 1987, highlight the potential risks to Orange County and L.A. residents.
The dynamic relationship between mosquitoes and garage environments emphasizes the importance of using EPA-registered insect repellents and proper clothing, especially during garage door repair or installation work or when staying in a garage with inadequate ventilation. The risk to individuals underscores the importance of controlling mosquitoes in your environment and garage by focusing on eliminating breeding spots with standing water, using larvicides for areas that can't be drained, improving ventilation and airflow, trimming vegetation, and using screens on windows and doors. Taking these steps can create a less appealing environment for mosquitoes and reduce the associated health risks.
