Zika Virus: Drainage Expert Available to Comment on How to Eliminate Standing Water Around Homes and Yards
Woodland Hills, Calif. (PRWEB) April 13, 2016 -- WHAT:
Mosquitoes transmit many harmful diseases, including malaria, West Nile and heartworms. And now, Zika Virus has emerged, which has stolen media attention after being linked to birth defects in babies through the bite of an infected mosquito. The takeaway – keeping pesky mosquitoes away from homes and yards has become a must-do, especially considering the escalating health risks associated with Zika Virus. This is why homeowners must be proactive about existing or potential drainage problems so they don’t run the risk of having their yards become a breeding ground. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it only takes one week for standing water to turn in to a breeding habitat for mosquitoes.
