Abstract/Contents:Focuses on mosquito management, suggesting that they "carry a number of diseases in the United States, including West Nile virus and more than one type of encephalitis." Mentions restrictions on the use of mosquitocides to take effect in October 2011, and briefly provides recommendations for reducing exposure to mosquitos. Advises "[removing] standing water where mosquitos can breed. Flower pots, birdbaths, buckets, barrels, cans, trash cans (and their lids), and swimming pool covers are all possible sources of standing water."
