West Nile Virus and Lyme Disease Prevention
West Nile Virus and Lyme Disease Prevention
Newton residents were diagnosed with both Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus last year. Take steps to avoid getting sick!
- Mosquito repellant not only works for mosquitoes, but helps repel ticks as well. Use a repellant with DEET, and follow label instructions for concentrations appropriate for children.
- Avoid being outdoors during peak mosquito hours, particularly once West Nile Virus has been detected in the mosquito population.
- Remove containers around your home (tires, kid pools, pots, tarps) that could allow mosquitoes to breed.
- Check your body for ticks after being outdoors and remove them immediately to avoid disease transmission.

Sending Prayers, after my Lyme Disease diagnosis, my rheumatologist was very open when looking at alternative medicines and procedures, with his guidance i started on Lyme disease Ayurvedic treatment from Natural Herbs Centre. The treatment worked very effectively for my Chronic Lyme, most of my severe symptoms simply vanished within the first 3 months on the treatment, i feel better now than I have felt in years and i can feel my strength again.
