Mosquito Season Defense

Increased risk of core equine diseases accompanies peak pest season.
Horses are threatened with mortality rates up to 90 percent from mosquito-transmitted diseases, which include Eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE), Western equine encephalomyelitis (WEE) and West Nile virus.1
(Editor’s Note. Equine health alerts can be found on www.cdfa.ca, under the Equine Health News tab. As of July 16, there were no alerts for the state.)
