Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

If you spend a lot of time outdoors, you should be aware that pesky mosquitoes can bring an array of virus-caused illnesses that could threaten your life.

Even though most people have already heard about the correlation between mosquitoes and West Nile virus, there are various other diseases mosquitoes carry that the general population does not know about. It is a sad fact that if the news does not report a person contracting a mosquito carried disease, nearly everyone would not even know the existence of these diseases at all. Mosquitoes are one of the dirtiest & deadliest creatures man has discovered.

Some of the viral diseases mosquitoes can bring include the following: – dengue fever – epidemic poly arthritis – Japanese encephalitis – LaCross encephalitis – Rift Valley fever – Ross River Fever – St. Louis encephalitis – West Nile virus – yellow fever

These are just some of the many other types of diseases mosquitoes can carry. Mosquitoes are also the only carrier of malaria, the planet’s leading cause of early demise.

The mosquito genus Anopheles cause over 5.3 million fatalities to occur each year. They are the mosquitoes that bring the malaria virus. Kids under the age of five make up most of these deaths.

Almost all mosquitoes are capable of carrying the filariasis worm, the causative agent of the disease elephantiasis. About 40 million people worldwide are currently dealing with some form of this illness.

Although these facts seem terrible, they are not the most dreaded part of the mosquito problem. As we age, mosquito bites are often unrecognizable. In children, mosquito bites often cause their skin to swell up & turn red. In full grown individuals, however, they tend to build immunity to these bites.

True, some types of mosquito types can’t be obviated; the mosquitoes can be warded off or repelled using simple mosquito nets and repellents. Keep these creatures away from your body and stay healthy, to prevent catching diseases from these dreaded insects.
