Fight the Bite

Key mosquito messaging:

In Western Australia, mosquitoes can transmit Ross River virus, Barmah Forest virus and Kunjin virus, as well as the potentially fatal Murray Valley encephalitis and Japanese encephalitis viruses (JEV).
Whilst there is a vaccine for JEV, there is no vaccine or cure for any of the other mosquito-borne disease acquired in WA.
The JEV vaccine does not provide protection against other serious mosquito-borne diseases, including Murray Valley encephalitis.
The most effective way to prevent infection is to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.
Cover Up – wear long, loose-fitting, light coloured clothing, covering as much of the body as you can.
Repel – apply an effective insect repellent containing DEET (diethyltoluamide), picaridin or Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus (OLE, also known as PMD) evenly to exposed skin.
Clean Up – remove, empty or cover water-holding containers. Keep your grass short to stop mosquitoes hanging around your home.

Key March fly messaging:

March flies can be a serious pest to humans, livestock and domestic animals.
March flies are not known to transmit diseases to people or livestock in Australia, however, their bite can cause serious allergic reactions and anaphylaxis.
Cover Up – wear long, loose-fitting, light coloured clothing, covering as much of the body as you can. Avoid blue and other dark colour clothing which are known to attract March flies.
Repel – apply an effective insect repellent containing DEET (diethyltoluamide), picaridin or Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus (OLE, also known as PMD) evenly to exposed skin.
