The precautions they\u2019re taking include getting rid of above-ground pools on abandoned properties, which can serve as a breeding ground for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/biting-insects\/index.php#mosquito\" target=\"_blank\">mosquitoes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Officials are also encouraging homeowners in the county to take steps to reduce mosquito populations in their own backyards. This includes getting rid of any sources of stagnant water, such as flower pots, and frequently changing water in bird baths.<\/p>\n<p>Homeowners should also have NJ pest control professionals deal with any mosquito infestations that occur. This helps keep mosquito populations under control and reduces the risk of spreading diseases, including Zika and West Nile virus.<\/p>\n<p>Officials warn that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/blog\/2016\/03\/10\/what-you-should-know-about-zika-virus\/\" target=\"_blank\">Zika virus<\/a> can cause serious health risks for pregnant women.
