Diseases Spread by Mosquitoes & Ways For Residential Mosquito Control

The most dangerous animal that can easily invite a host of diseases into your home is the humble mosquito. The virus they carry can affect both humans and animals. Finding it hard to believe that such a small creature can be so harmful? Let’s take a look at some of the deadly infections they carry:

 Yellow Fever

Characterized by jaundice and high fever, it is a potentially deadly flu. Like most mosquito-spread infections, it is difficult to diagnose them in the early stages. However, Dubai offers an extremely effective vaccine against it.

Malaria

The deadly bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito causes malaria. These mosquitoes carry the plasmodium parasite which enters the bloodstream through the bite. Headache, chills, aching muscles, nausea, etc are some of its symptoms. The after-effects include seizures, kidney failure, and even death. 

Dengue

Also known as break-bone fever, dengue is spread by the Aedes mosquito that carries 4 different viruses. The severe after-effects include DHF- dengue hemorrhagic fever and DSS-dengue shock syndrome which requires hospitalization.

West Nile Virus

Mosquitoes transfer this disease after biting an infected bird. Some of the severe symptoms include muscle weakness, paralysis, coma, fever, etc. 

The most obvious way to be safe from diseases is to maintain a safe and healthy environment at home and in the office. Apart from cleaning the space, you can also take the help of residential mosquito control companies in Dubai. You can get in touch with pest control companies in the Dubai Marina area.
