A soggy spring combined with hot summer temperatures have created a thriving environment for mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are not only bothersome but are capable of transmitting disease in both humans and animals. Protect your pet naturally with the following recommendations:
1. Prevent Heartworm Disease. Heartworms are parasites that can live and breed inside your pet’s heart transmitted by mosquitoes. Adult heartworms can cause heart and lung damage, even death. Learn how to protect your pet from heartworm disease.
2. Keep Pets Indoors. Make sure windows and doors are shut or properly screened.
3. Remove Standing Water Sources. Ideal environments for mosquito larvae.
