Why Mosquitoes in Massachusetts Could Be Carrying More Than Just an Itchy Bite

Mosquito-borne diseases are on the rise, making Plymouth County mosquito control an important consideration

We endure a long and cold winter each year in Massachusetts, and the arrival of spring and summer is all the more sweet because of it. There are a couple down sides to this time of year. After all, nothing is perfect, and mosquitoes are one of the biggest issues we face during the outdoor living season. These pests are notoriously annoying, biting us whenever they see fit and disrupting outdoor gatherings during the evening hours. Although such behavior is intolerable at times, these biters hold an even more nefarious secret: Disease and parasites. 

While mosquito-borne diseases are often associated with regions outside the United States, there are clear indications that diseases such as West Nile virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, heartworm, and other illnesses are going to manifest in human and animal populations more frequently as our weather continues to warm in the coming years. The most serious of these diseases in EEE, which is pretty rare, but those who contract the illness face around a one-in-three chance of fatality, emphasizing the severe risks this disease poses. For obvious reasons, these diseases are often quite serious, and it also means your pets are vulnerable. While medication for dogs is recommended to kill heartworm (a proactive treatment that is very effective), there is no treatment for cats, and despite the fact they are less prone to heartworm infestations, the medication is not viable for them. Heartworm could be a death sentence for your feline friends, making preventative measures essential. This is where our team can help!
