To help stop the spread of West Nile, health officials want people to wear insect repellent with DEET and remove standing water sources that breed mosquitoes like birdbaths, gutters, and the bottoms of flower pots.

The virus is spread through the bite of a mosquito that had been feeding on an infected bird.

Grant Brueggemann of Southeast District Health Department said two contractors have been placing mosquito traps in Richardson, Otoe, Nemaha and Pawnee counties since June and these are the first two traps to capture mosquitoes carrying the virus.

A human case of West Nile virus has been confirmed in Simcoe County. That includes using insect repellent and wearing long-sleeved shirts and long trousers.

Mosquito breeding sites should also be eliminated.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 80 percent of the people who become infected don't have symptoms, but some develop flu-like symptoms, which can last for weeks or even months. Symptoms include fever, headache, body and joint aches, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash.
