Minimizing the Risk of WNV
About Avian WNV in U.S.
Mosquitoes, primarily the Culex species, are carriers of West Nile Virus (WNV), which affects birds and can indirectly impact humans in Middle Tennessee areas like Columbia and Franklin. These mosquitoes are active during warm months and breed in standing water, making it important for homeowners to eliminate stagnant water to minimize risk. Using insect repellents and keeping window screens intact also helps reduce mosquito bites and WNV transmission.
