Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) update:
Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) is a rare but serious disease caused by a virus. The virus that causes EEE is spread through the bite of an infected mosquito. Symptoms associated with EEE include high fever, headache, stiff neck and lack of energy.
As of today, the town of Milton is considered low risk for EEE. The town’s status is subject to change based on reports of EEE in the area and Health Services will keep the community posted with any updates.
DPH is encouraging Norfolk county residents to take the following precautions to decrease the risk of mosquito bites:
Apply Insect Repellent when Outdoors. Use a repellent with an EPA-registered ingredient (DEET (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide), permethrin, picaridin (KBR 3023), oil of lemon eucalyptus [p-methane 3, 8-diol (PMD)] or IR3535) according to the instructions on the product label.
Be Aware of Peak Mosquito Hours. The hours from dusk to dawn are peak biting times for many mosquitoes. Consider rescheduling outdoor activities that occur during evening or early morning in areas of high risk.
Clothing Can Help Reduce Mosquito Bites. Wearing long-sleeves, long pants and socks when outdoors will help keep mosquitoes away from your skin.
