New Product to Help Stop the Spread of West Nile Virus
OriginalUdderBalm.com expands its product offering with Larvae Halt II, a new weapon in the effort to control mosquitoes that spread West Nile Virus.
Anyone with standing water on their property such as farmers, golf courses, homeowners, and municipalities who are concerned about the mosquito population and the spread of West Nile Virus should know about Larvae Halt II.
Up to now, the options for minimizing the mosquito population have included Bti, another larvicide that kills mosquito larvae in clean water, and adulticiding which involves applying chemicals on the ground or in the air in order to kill adult mosquitoes.
Now there is Larvae Halt II, which contains a naturally occurring bacterium that is target specific (mosquito larvae) but will not harm humans, pets, horses, fish, or the environment.
"Larvae Halt II with Bsph is different from the Bti in that it kills mosquito larvae in organically polluted waters such as storm water/drainage systems, seepage ponds, wastewater, marine & costal areas, water troughs, and waste tires while being environmentally safe," says Mark J.
Hoag, co-owner of OriginalUdderBalm.com.
"Larviciding is the next best thing to permanently reducing the areas in which mosquitoes breed.
It makes more sense to treat a 100 acre mosquito larvae source then to wait till the adult mosquitoes spread out and you have to spray a 7,200 acre area."
Larvae Halt II gives long term control, produces predictable, effective results, works within 24 to 48 hours, is particularly effective against all Culex species (they carry the West Nile Virus), recycles in the environment, and is unaffected by polluted (organic) water.
For additional information about Larvae Halt II, contact Becky Hoag, visit www.originaludderbalm.com/bugkiller, or visit www.larvaehalt.com.
Larvae Halt II is available for immediate shipment in 10-pound pails and packages containing 6 or 40 water-soluble packs.About OriginalUdderBalm.comOriginalUdderBalm.com is a leading Internet supplier for udder balm skin care products, pet and equine care products, and environmentally friendly mosquito control products..

West Nile Virus
West Nile virus is a strain of encephalitis similar to Saint Louis encephalitis, which reached epidemic proportions in the 1950's and 60's. West Nile virus, like encephalitis, is transmitted by mosquitos. There are several species of mosquitos that have been identified as vectors for West Nile, and more species are constantly being identified. One of the most common species, Culex pipiens or house mosquito, is a carrier as is the Tiger mosquito. These two species are common in and around residential areas which makes the disease that much more dangerous.West Nile virus was first isolated in 1937 in a woman's blood in the West Nile province of Uganda.
Since then there have been outbreaks of epidemic proportions in Israel in the 50's, France in the 60's, thousands of cases in South Africa in the 70's, and found in New York City in 1999. As of December 2002 there are 3,775 reported cases in the United States.It is not known how West Nile arrived in New York, but speculation ranges...

A Guide to Waterbed Mattresses
If you need a new waterbed mattress, there are a variety of things you should know. For starters, waterbed mattresses come in different levels of firmness. Since even the firmest waterbed is less firm than a traditional bed, most experts recommend buying the firmest waterbed mattress that you can afford.
Let's take a look at the different types of waterbed mattresses:
Free Flow: as its name suggests, a free flow mattress allows the water to flow freely. This makes the bed feel as though it is always gently rocking. Sleeping on a free flow waterbed mattress is much like sleeping on a boat.
This type of mattress is not recommended for someone who desires support. Some people have trouble sleeping on a bed that moves freely with every toss and every turn. In addition, the free flow mattress doesn't have any mechanism to balance it. This means that if one partner is larger or heavier than the other, the mattress will be lopsided.
