Experts advise residents to avoid bites by using insect repellant, protective clothing and by taking steps to keep mosquitoes off their property.

Pasco and Citrus County officials are urging residents to protect themselves against mosquitoes. Sentinel chickens in both counties have tested positive for Eastern equine encephalitis in recent weeks, which is a rare but deadly mosquito-borne illness.
Only a very small portion of people bit by a mosquito carrying the virus actually develop the disease each year. But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates about a third of those who do end up dying, and many survivors suffer brain damage.
