The best way to protect yourself from West Nile Virus is to prevent bites.

This can be done by wearing long-sleeved, light-colored clothing, using insect repellent containing DEET, avoiding outdoor activities during dusk and dawn when mosquitoes are most active, and removing any standing water from your home or yard, as it serves as a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

We have free mosquito dunks available, while supplies last

Reduce your chance of getting West Nile virus.

✔️ Use insect repellents when you go outdoors. Repellents containing DEET, picaridin, IR3535, or oil of lemon eucalyptus, as well as para-menthane-diol products, provide the best protection. To learn more about insect repellents, including information on products, active ingredients, and safety, visit the EPA’s information webpage. Follow label instructions.

✔️ Limit outdoor activities at dusk and dawn. That is when mosquitoes are most active.

✔️ Wear protective clothing, such as loose-fitting long pants, long-sleeved shirts, and tall socks. Mosquitoes can bite through tight clothes, so loose-fitting clothes provide better protection.

Expect an uptick increase this year - take care when outdoors!
To help prevent tick bites, treat clothing and equipment with products that contain 0.5% perm.

Use insect repellents when you go outdoors. Repellants containing DEET, picaridine, IR3535 or a little bit of lemon eucalyptus oil, as well as para-mentane-diol products, provide the best protection.

Saying “Cheese!” to National Cheese Day. Celebrate the gooey, the sharp, and the savory! June 4th is National Cheese Day, a perfect time to honor one of the world’s oldest and most beloved foods.

From its accidental discovery over 7,000 years ago to the 2,000+ varieties we enjoy today, cheese is a staple that brings both flavor and nutrition to our tables.

Why is Cheese a “Grate” Choice for Kids? Cheese is more than just a delicious topping for pizza; it is a nutrient-dense powerhouse that supports growing bodies.

✅ Skeletal Strength: Cheese is high in calcium and vitamin D
✅ Muscle Growth: Cheese is an excellent source of high-quality protein
✅ Dental Health: Harder cheeses like Cheddar and Swiss can help prevent tooth decay by
promoting saliva, which neutralizes acids in the mouth.
✅ Energy Support: Cheese is packed with vitamin A and B12
✅ Lactose-Friendly: Many hard cheeses like Parmesan or Swiss are naturally low in lactose, making them a great option for children with sensitivities.
