I wouldn't go outside in the evening when I was pregnant in nola last summer even though there were no incidents of Zika from mosquitos found in New Orleans.

It wasn't worth the risk to me. It's a choice only you and your wife can make. Some people claim Zika is caused by pesticides and not mosquitoes but do you want to risk your kid's life on that? It's a rough call.

Interesting. Every time I apply a repel land I wonder how much of it is absorbed thru the skin.

Some claim vaccines cause autism or to the Earth is flat. But they would be stupid.


Who claims zika is caused by pesticides and not mosquitos? I've never heard that one.
