Now more than ever protecting ourselves from harmful bugs and mosquitoes is imperative.
With the threat of the Zika virus inching closer and closer to the United States, we have to be careful and take the right precautions to protect ourselves and loved ones.
Mosquito bites are never enjoyable. A lot of people don’t know much about the disease but we do know it is transmitted from a certain type of mosquito. According to the CDC it is the Aedes species and they are known for being aggressive during the day but can also bite at night. It's currently affecting pregnant women and the children they carry. Zika has been found in Florida so far in the United States but is more prominent in other countries, such as Mexico.
Zika is still so new that there is much we still don’t know or understand. It is important that we protect ourselves and loved ones at all times by taking the necessary steps for preventing bug bites of any kind.
Protect yourself by:
Proper Clothing
Try and wear long sleeves and long pants as much as possible; the less exposed skin the better.
Control your environment:
Make sure you are controlling your environments as much as possible. Keep inside rooms cool, always use nets outside if sleeping, or for babies under 2 months.
Protect your skin
Most importantly, protect your skin. Bug repellent is key in keeping bugs and mosquitoes away. Some great drugstore products The Online Drugstore has that can help prevent bites
