THREE WAYS TO REDUCE YOUR WEST NILE VIRUS RISK

bulletCover Up! Wearing long sleeve shirts, long pants and socks sprayed with repellent while outdoors can further help prevent mosquito bites. Avoid Mosquitoes! Many mosquitoes bite between dusk and dawn. Limit time outdoors during these hours, or be especially sure to use repellents and protective clothing.
 
bulletSpray! Spray insect repellent containing DEET (Look for N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide) on exposed skin when you go outdoors. Spray clothing with repellents containing DEET or permethrin to repel mosquitos. Products with a higher percentage of DEET (up to 50%) give longer protection against mosquitos. Don't spray repellent on skin under clothing. Don't use permethrin on skin.
 
bulletUse Repellent Carefully! Repellents containing DEET are very safe for adults and children when used according to directions. Don't put repellent on kid's hands because it may get in their mouth or eyes.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET INFECTED?
Most people who get infected with West Nile virus do not have any symptoms. Some people develop a mild illness called West Nile Fever. This mild illness gets better on its own. No treatment is needed. A small number of people (less than 1 out of 100) who get infected with West Nile virus develop severe disease, called West Nile encephalitis or West Nile meningitis (inflammation of the brain or the area around the brain). This severe disease usually requires hospitalization. In some cases, especially among older persons, it can result in death. Symptoms of severe illness include headache, high fever, stiff neck, mental confusion, muscle weakness, tremors (shaking), convulsions, coma, and paralysis. See your doctor if you develop these symptoms. There is no specific treatment for the West Nile virus infection.

Because BugX® Towelettes are compact, they can be carried in a pocket, purse, or even the glove box of an Engine.  Keep some around the house and let the kids take one to school.  Basically, why take a chance?  Just grab a  BugX® Towelette!
