Title

  • Used Tires and the West Nile Virus

Description

  • Used tires are a breeding source for mosquitoes, providing an ideal incubator for mosquito eggs and larvae. Adult mosquitoes lay eggs in improperly discarded tires filled with rainwater and organic materials (leaves and grass). Over the course of one breeding season, hundreds of mosquitoes can be generated from just one tire.
