I look at it this way, this stuff has been around a long time,IMHO, people never knew about it and ignorance was bliss, Lyme scares me more than EEE, maybe because I have 2 friends that have had their life severely changed bye the disease, one is an avid hunter and fisherman, the other is a church singer and gospel song recording artist that rarely steps on grass,both have life changing illnesses from those blood s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g little beasts(ticks) I spend a lot of time out of doors, I never liked ticks, and always have done as much as humanly possible to repel them... mosquitos, I've never saw as much more than an annoyance... I'm just a little more aware these days and have spray with as much DEET as possible near by, I've always used a device called a thermo cell while hunting and fresh water fishing from shore, I take it with me in the garden and anytime I don't want to lather bug spray on (or if the wind is blowing hard enough to negate the effects of the device)..
Much like the terrorist prevention/awareness, I refuse to let it ( biting bugs) effect my life, I wont live in a bubble...I guess I'll just take a few more precautions and what will happen is going to happen... heck, I've had mosquitos show up in my office.. that little bugger could be the one to do me in.. and there aint noting I can do about that.
