Make sure children are also appropriately covered up Repel: Use insect repellent containing DEET (diethyltoluamide) or picardin and always follow instructions on the label Clean up: stop mosquitoes breeding in water pooling around your home or holiday accommodation by emptying water from containers Shire Environmental Health Officer Jacinta McKinlay said the Shire is a relative low-risk area for mosquito-borne viruses but there are pockets around the region where mosquito activity are relatively high.
“The dominant species trapped here was Aedes camptorhynchus, which is commonly found it coastal areas as well as tidal salt marshes, and is a significant vector of Ross River Virus in the south west.
“Higher numbers were also recorded near Molloy Island and parts of Augusta.” Ms McKinlay said despite the high mosquito activity in these locations, official notifications for mosquito-borne viruses via health system processes remain very low.
