How do people interact with the Tiger Mosquito?
If one disease gave the Asian tiger its 'most unwanted' status in the U.S, it would be West Nile virus -a serious, life-altering and even fatal disease. Carried by birds and spread by infected mosquitoes, it has killed hundreds of millions of birds and more than 1000 people in North America, with new outbreaks occurring each year.

About Mosquito
Mosquitos have been an irritant for the human species since the beginning of time. They bite, they cause itchy bumps, they keep us awake at night with their buzzing, and they are the carriers of disease like yellow fever, dengue fever, and malaria.
About West Nile Virus
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) West Nile virus (WNV) is a potentially serious seasonal (summer/fall) illness for which there is no specific treatment. Avoid mosquito bites by using repellent and wearing long sleeves. In mild cases people experience symptoms such as fever and aches that pass on their own, although even healthy people have become sick for several weeks.
