Insects That Carry Diseases

Sometimes in life, it’s the smallest things that cause the biggest problem. Losing your keys, running out of milk, forgetting to do something your wife has asked you to do. . . . But the smallest problem-causers in nature, where our health is concerned, are insects. Let’s take a look at how insects affect our lives negatively.

According to John R. Meyer, Department of Entomology at NC State University, “Because they dominate nearly all environments that support human life, insects are usually our most important competitors for food, fiber, and other natural resources. They have a direct impact on agricultural food production by chewing the leaves of crop plants; sucking out plant juices; boring within the roots, stems or leaves; and spreading plant pathogens. They feed on natural fibers, destroy wooden building materials, ruin stored grain, and accelerate the process of decay.  They also have a profound impact on the health of humans and domestic animals by causing annoyance, inflicting bites and stings, and transmitting disease.”

  1. Mosquitoes – Malaria, Chikungunya, Dog Heartworm, Dengue, Yellow Fever, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, St. Louis Encephalitis, LaCrosse Encephalitis, Western Equine Encephalitis, West Nile Virus, Zika Virus
  2. Fleas – plague
  3. House flies -  Enteric diseases (Salmonella, Cholera, E. coli)
  4. Ticks – Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever


So if this short list of horrendous insect-transmitted diseases scares you, give us a call to help protect you from these pests! We’re the New Orleans experts! 800-650-PEST.
