The enjoyment of your backyard stands out as one of the key pleasures during the warmer months in Columbus, Ohio, which last for approximately 12 weeks. Ensuring that your yard and outdoor areas are safe for children and pets is a primary concern for many parents. With the increasing prevalence of diseases transmitted by mosquitoes and ticks, it is crucial to protect your loved ones from these health risks. Restoration Pest Management provides advanced mosquito and tick control solutions that utilize insect growth regulators to disrupt the reproductive cycle of these pests, thereby creating a safer environment for outdoor activities.
The rise in mosquito-borne and tick-borne diseases poses a significant public health challenge, with notable increases in cases of dengue, West Nile virus, and Lyme disease. The warmer, more humid summers contribute to the proliferation of these illnesses, underscoring the importance of preventive measures and public awareness. In the Americas, dengue cases have surged, with over 9.7 million reported in the first half of 2024, presenting symptoms such as high fever and severe headaches. The CDC has highlighted the growing risk of dengue in the United States, particularly in Puerto Rico and among travelers, although most cases remain mild.
Similarly, West Nile virus has seen an uptick, with 325 positive mosquito pools and 103 human cases documented in
New York City
by mid-2024. Lyme disease, the most prevalent tick-borne illness in the United States, is encroaching into urban regions as a result of climate change. Preventive strategies include steering clear of areas infested with ticks and mosquitoes, applying repellent, and conducting thorough tick checks.
