Protect Yourself from Mosquito-Borne Diseases in the Northeast with Sunesta’s Retractable Screens

Summertime in the Northeast is all about long days outdoors, enjoying the beautiful weather and natural surroundings.

However, one thing that can quickly spoil your fun is mosquitoes. Not only can they be an annoyance, but they can also pose a serious health risk as they carry and transmit diseases like the West Nile virus and the Zika virus.

The good news is that you can protect yourself and your family from these pesky insects with Sunesta’s custom-made, retractable screens. In this blog post, we’ll explain how these screens can help keep mosquitoes at bay and your family healthy.

Diving Into How Mosquitoes Spread Diseases

Mosquitoes are known vectors of diseases that can cause serious health problems depending on the individual and what is currently circulating in your area.

Specifically, “When a mosquito feeds on blood, it also swallows any viruses or parasites living in the blood,” according to the World Mosquito Program. “These viruses and parasites can be transferred to the next person the mosquito bites through its saliva. Any disease that is spread in this way from mosquito to human (or animal) is known as a ‘mosquito-borne disease’.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports the following diseases as ones spread from mosquitoes to humans:

  • Zika virus
  • West Nile virus
  • Malaria
  • Chikungunya virus
  • And more

Sunesta retractable screens are not only effective but safe too. They’re made from high-quality materials that are durable and able to withstand wear and tear.
