Fight the Bite! July 26, 2007, the Department of Public Health and Human Services notified the Valley County Health Department stating that a pool of mosquitoes which was setit into the state for identification for West Nile Virus has tested positive in the <strong>Glasgow</strong> area. "We really aren't surprised due to the increased rainfall we received this spring and the hot weather we are now experiencing", stated Vickie Bell, Valley County Health Nurse. "However. now is the time to take precautions to protect our~elves.~' This includes preventing mosquito bites by staying indoors during tlie dusk and dawn hours when the ~nosquitoes are most active, wearing long sleeves and long pants when outdoors, applying insect repellent containing DEET. (Make sure to follow the instructions carefully when applying to children. Repellents containing DEET should not be used on infants less NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS Personal property taxes are due by 500 pm on Tuesday, July 31, 2007 and become delinquent on August 1, 2007 and draw interest at the rate of 516 of 1% per month from the time of delinquency until paid and 2% will be added to the than 2 months old.) And making sure to install or repair window and door screens. West Nile Virus is not a new disease and was first discovered in 1937 in Uganda, Africa. It was first identified in the United States in 1999 in the New York City area and has been spreading westward by moscli~itoes carrying the virus to tlie huriian population. Since 2003 Valley County has had 20 confirmed human cascs and 4 horses identified with West Nile. What are the symptoliis of Wcst Nile virus? Most people infected with West Nile virus do not become ill. People with a mild infection may present with fever. headache, eye pain, muscle aches, joint pain, a rash on the trunk and swollen lymph nodes. In severe cases sy~iiptolns include extreme muscle weakness, inflammation of the brain (encephalitis), paralysis and coma. In rare cases the infection may be fatal, particularly in the elderly and people with other medical conditions. There is no specific treatment for West Nile virus infection. A physician may prescribe medications to relieve syliipto~ns of the illness. In severe cases, hospitalization may be required. Reducing ~iiosquito populations will also reduce mosquito bites. The Valley County Mosquito District which is publicly funded provides surveillance and control llieasures to reduce mosquito populations by eliminating nlosquito breeding habitat, mosquito larvae or adults. The public can also take measures in their own yards or property to eliminate standing water where rriosquitoes breed. Soul.ces of standing water can include old tires. metal cans, ceramic pots, clogged rain gutters. wading pools, pool covers, and birdbaths.
