West Nile Virus indentified in Grand Forks!

Mosquito Surveillance - Why Trap Mosquitoes?

Grand Forks Health Department has identified West Nile virus (WNV) in a crow. WNV is a serious disease that is transmitted by mosquitoes. Most people infected with this disease will have no symptoms or mild symptoms but this is a serious disease and can be fatal. The Grand Forks Public Health Department urges citizens to take personal precautions to avoid mosquito bites. The type of mosquito most common for transmitting WNV is present in our area and is most active from dusk until dawn. Please take the necessary measures to avoid mosquito bites.

The Grand Forks Health Department maintains an active mosquito surveillance program. The more we know about mosquitoes, the better equipped we are to control them. Our surveillance program is responsible for collecting, identifying, and conducting West Nile virus tests on mosquitoes. Traps are distributed throughout the community and the Information gained from these traps include: Mosquito Population – Knowing the population helps us determine if it’s necessary to conduct citywide mosquito spraying. This information also enables us to measure the effectiveness of the mosquito spraying operations.

How do people get infected with WNV? Most people get infected with WNV by an infected mosquito. Mosquitoes become infected when they feed on infected birds. Infected mosquitoes can then spread the virus to humans and other animals. In a very small number of cases, West Nile virus has been spread through blood transfusions, organ transplants, and from mother to baby during pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding.

Can I get West Nile virus directly from birds?

There is no evidence that a person can get infected from handling live or dead infected birds. However, you should avoid bare-handed contact when handling any dead animal. If you must pick up a dead bird, use gloves or an inverted plastic bag to place the bird’s carcass (body) in a garbage bag.

Why do some states and local areas stop collecting dead birds to test for West Nile virus?

West Nile virus is found in all 48 contiguous states (not in Alaska and Hawaii) and the virus circulates in mosquitoes and birds every year. Because West Nile virus is well established, some states and local jurisdictions are no longer collecting dead birds for testing. Instead, they have chosen to shift staff and funding resources away from testing of dead birds to other areas of West Nile virus surveillance and control.

Who is at risk for serious illness if infected with WNV? Serious illness can occur in people of any age. However, people over 60 years of age are at the greatest risk for severe disease. People with certain medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, and people who have received organ transplants, are also at greater risk for serious illness.

Species of Mosquitoes – There’s around 43 different species of mosquitoes in North Dakota. Some of these mosquitoes are just annoying pests, but one of them, the Culex tarsalis, is the most common mosquito for transmitting West Nile virus in North Dakota. This mosquito is prevalent in the Grand Forks region. Monitoring and testing the Culex tarsalis mosquito is important because it may enable us to respond to an elevated threat of West Nile virus before it infects the human population. This component of mosquito control is very important in reducing the risk of mosquito-borne disease in our community.

Mosquito Activity – Knowing what times the mosquitoes are active is important for getting the best results from our spray operation. We use ultra-low volume sprayers that deliver very small droplets and only 1 ounce of a diluted, non-residual insecticide per acre. Because we’re using such a small amount of insecticide, timing is critical to be successful. This insecticide must directly impact mosquitoes, generally while in flight to be effective. Rotator traps are used to monitor the times the mosquitoes are most active.

Gender Identification – Knowing the sex of the mosquito can be helpful in predicting a new hatch. Male mosquitoes hatch out before females.

Therefore, if we see a spike in the number of male mosquitoes collected in our traps, we know there’s the potential for an increase of females soon to follow. That data is helpful in preparing us for a citywide spray.

It’s a short warning to get ready.

Traps used in mosquito surveillance programs are not successful in reducing mosquito populations. They are simply a surveillance tool used to collect data about the mosquitoes in our community.

• It was 19th-century mathematician and philosopher William Kingdon Clifford who made the following sage observation: "It is wrong always, everywhere, and for anyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence."

• Thanks to stories of Robin Hood, most people have heard of King Richard the Lion-Hearted.

This is where John Ivers, a blue-collar worker, decided he wanted to build a roller coaster in the backyard of his home off Highway 41 -- and he didn't let his lack of an engineering background stop him. The thrilling 10-second ride was completed in 2001, and in 2006 those with less nerve got their own, tamer coaster on the same site. The coasters are open to the public, so visitors can try out either (or both) of the rides by making an appointment.

• You may be surprised to learn that an elephant is 40 to 50 years old before all of its teeth come in.

• Aside from being well-known conquerors, what did Alexander the Great and Napoleon have in common? They both hated cats. *** Thought for the Day: "Man can be the most affectionate and altruistic of creatures, yet he's potentially more vicious than any other. He is the only one who can be persuaded to hate millions of his own kind whom he has never seen and to kill as many as he can lay his hands on in the name of his tribe or his God." -- Benjamin Spock © 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

• Sharks can detect one part of blood per ten billion parts of water - that means they could detect one drop of blood in a volume the size of an Olympic swimming pool.

• Sharks will eat anything. Some of the odd things that have been found in their stomachs include: a roll of roofing paper, a telephone book, pots and pans, a drinkable bottle of wine, a keg of nails, a car license plate, and a yellow-billed cuckoo.

• When sharks choose a victim, they tend to concentrate only on that person, totally ignoring other people who are trying to help.

• When under attack by a shark, the worst thing to do is to thrash and flee. That's what sharks expect.

What sharks don't expect— and don't like— is prey that fights back. Swim directly at the shark, shout, wave your arms, blow scuba bubbles at it, and try to hit it on the snout, gills, or eyes.

So long as ISIS looks as though it is successfully resisting its enemies, though, it has a magnetic appeal to potential loyalists in the West. If it is impossible to snuff out the ideology of Islamic radicalism on the battlefield, it is possible to make it look much less alluring. No one likes a loser. ISIS will no longer have such perverse cachet as soon as it is crushed in the field.

President Obama is certainly right that a San Bernardino or an Orlando isn't going to bring the country to its knees, but he underestimates the price to American society.

Do we want to live in a country where every county agency or nightclub feels compelled to deploy metal detectors and armed guards?

President Bush used every tool in his power, from the Patriot Act, the NSA surveillance program and enhanced interrogations to relentless military operations overseas, in his zeal to protect the homeland.

President Obama let up the pressure, and what he once dismissed as the JV team is exacting a terrible price.

• If you use plastic grocery-store bags to line a small garbage can, here’s a great way to keep them from falling into the bottom of the can: Use two Command hooks (they have a stick-on back) on either side of your trash can.

Aim the hook toward the bottom of the can, so that the bag’s handles catch on it. This works great in our house!”

— M.M. in Pennsylvania • Use a binder clip to help your kitchen sponge stand up. That way, it will dry out better, as both sides will be exposed to the air instead of one lying flat. The sponge will collect less mildew, which is yucky. When it’s ready for a good wash, use the binder clip to secure it in the dishwasher.

• To remove dust and dirt that collect in the tracks of your windows, first use a hand vacuum to remove the big stuff, then dip a cotton swab in vinegar and run it along the edges to get out the rest.

• “I pinned a manila envelope on the wall behind my calendar. I pick up greeting cards well ahead of the occasion, and I slip them into the envelope.

When I turn a new month, I fish out all the cards to be mailed that month, write my messages and add postage.

They are ready to send! I love finding personal mail in my mailbox and not just bills and advertisements. I know my friends and family do too!” — P.C. in Washington • Got an old T-shirt that you love but can’t really wear anymore? Maybe it’s too small or too big or has a stain, but you love the print. Sew the bottom shut, cut off the sleeves and widen the opening. Instant reusable shopping tote.

HEART ATTACK FACTS • 37% of all deaths in the United States are related to heart disease, making it the largest single cause of natural death. Heart disease kills twice as many people as all forms of cancer combined. The major causes are smoking, fatty diet, high blood pressure, obesity, stress, heredity, lack of exercise, and diabetes. It is an illness produced of man's environment. Before 1900, heart attacks were very rare. The rate of heart disease increased so sharply between 1940 and 1967 that the World Health Organization called it the world’s most serious epidemic.

• Every single cell in the heart is guided by an electrical impulse which synchronizes the heartbeat so all muscle cells contract in unison to pump the blood. During a heart attack, the cells begin firing out of turn so the efficiency of the heart is lost and the blood does not get pumped. When doctors shock the heart, the shock overrides each cell’s individual firing mechanism and once again synchronizes every cell, hopefully getting them all to work together again.

TERRIBLE TERMITES

• In South Carolina, a wedding party in a photographer’s studio was being photographed when the floor collapsed, dumping them into the basement.

In Mississippi, the band playing in the bandstand during 4th of July festivities plunged through the floor. In Tennessee, pacifists staged a peace rally at the courthouse. American Legionaries held a counter-protest and paraded in military style up the courthouse steps, which collapsed beneath them.

All of these incidents were caused by termites.

• In 1951 a warehouse in Missouri was found to be termite infested. Just then one of the worst floods in the city’s history inundated the town. For a full week, the warehouse was submerged. When the flood receded, the owners of the warehouse figured that their termite problem was over. However, after the mud was shoveled out, the termites were found to be still alive and thriving. Termites do more damage in the U.S. than lightning, tornadoes, arson, and vandalism combined.

• Termites were among the first insects to appear on earth, showing up well before the dinosaurs.

They are found in every state except Alaska.

Texas has more species of termites than any other state with 17. California is a close second, followed by Arizona and Florida. Areas of least infestation include Wyoming, Montana, and the Dakotas. Termites have been able to expand their range vastly due to the invention of central heating, which keeps them warm throughout the winter. Infestation is so heavy in Washington, D.C. that city codes prohibit the construction of wooden floors in city buildings. Termites were once found living on the 11th floor of a high-rise hotel in Silver Moon Beach, Florida. They got all the water they needed from a leaky ice-cube machine and an incontinent poodle.
