Is Dengue Fever in Georgia?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

July 24, 2024

When it comes to our day-to-day lives, there are plenty of things to worry about. From picking up groceries to paying bills and so much more, we contend with a lot. Often, it takes proactive measures to manage issues ahead of time, and the same goes for mosquito control. In recent times, there has been growing concern regarding the spread of Dengue fever and whether or not it has made it to Georgia. Well, let us reassure you. Dengue fever, so far, has only had incidences in our region due to travel and there is only a minute risk of Dengue making its way into local mosquito populations. In the future, however, this could change. In the meantime, mosquitoes are still a problem, and we’re here to help resolve it for you.

Proactive Cartersville Mosquito Control

Due to changes in our local climate and much of the United States, mosquitoes capable of spreading dangerous diseases have made themselves at home in our area. The Aedes variety of mosquitoes are known to transmit diseases such as Eastern Equine Encephalitis, LaCrosse virus, and more. Sadly, this mosquito is present in Georgia, meaning it is worth considering mosquito control. In addition to improving your day-to-day life by dramatically reducing the mosquito population on your property, our treatments also promise to reduce the likelihood of encountering dangerous mosquitoes. It’s a win-win!
