Health Department Shares Ways to “Fight the Bite”

Hopewell, NY: The Ontario County Public Health Department has confirmed a case of West Nile Virus (WNV) in a resident. The case was acquired in the northern, Finger Lakes Region, through the bite of an infected mosquito. This marks an important reminder for residents to take precautions against mosquito bites. Late summer and early fall remain active transmission periods for mosquito-borne illness. Now is the time to “Fight the Bite” by using insect repellent, eliminating standing water, and staying covered during peak mosquito hours.

West Nile Virus is primarily spread through the bite of an infected mosquito. While most people experience no symptoms, some may develop fever, headache, body aches, joint pain, vomiting, diarrhea, or rash. Older adults and those who are immune compromised are more apt to be symptomatic. In rare cases, WNV can lead to serious neurological illness such as encephalitis or meningitis – infection in the brain and spinal cord.

“Mosquitoes are still active and we urge the public to Fight the Bite until a heavy frost.” said Kate Ott the Director of Ontario Public Health. “We are encouraging the public to be aware of mosquitoes, use insect repellent, wear long sleeves when outdoors, and eliminate standing water around homes.”

Fight the Bite:

Use EPA-registered insect repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus

Wear long sleeves and pants when outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk

Remove standing water from flowerpots, gutters, buckets, and birdbaths

Ensure window and door screens are intact to keep mosquitoes out

Seek medical attention if you experience symptoms such as fever, headache, body aches, nausea and occasionally a skin rash or swollen lymph glands. These may be signs of West Nile Virus or another illness that requires evaluation by a healthcare provider.

Meet Tracy. She's the health and wellness coach located here, at Body Kneads. Check out her page Mind Your Wellness then hop over to our website to book your much kneaded discovery session.

Hi! My name is Tracy. I am a Transformational Health and Life Coach and a Functional Nutrition Counselor.

I work with people who feel overwhelmed with the demands and expectations of a healthy lifestyle.
I help them overcome obstacles to empower them to align their mind, body and soul so they can enjoy life, not just survive it.

With over 20 years of combined experience as a Counselor and a Coach, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative power of guiding individuals towards discovering their inner strength and potential. I believe that the answers and solutions we seek are already within us. I specialize in helping clients bridge the gap between knowing what to do and taking action, empowering them to cultivate lasting change in their lives.

My journey towards becoming a Health and Life Coach was driven by a desire to make a bigger impact by supporting others to achieve optimal well-being. It's time for our society to ditch the DIET mentality that is making us all more UNhealthy and stressed and to ignore all the conflicting information out there that tells you, “Eat this, don't eat that”.

Health and wellness is not a one-path-works-for-all type of journey, it needs to be individualized and is best achieved with a holistic approach. My services are rooted in what I refer to as the 4 Pillars of Health: Sleep, Nutrition, Movement and Relaxation. My customized coaching programs address each of these pillars for you to achieve optimal health and overall wellness.

I am currently taking new clients. Let's embark on this journey together towards a healthier, happier you. DM me to schedule your complementary Wellness Discovery Session to see if coaching is the next best step for you.
