Since West Nile Virus is transmitted by mosquitos, the best preventative measure would be to avoid areas with large populations of mosquitos. Places to avoid would be swamps in particular, or any place with many pools of stagnant water. If you want to keep mosquitos away from your home, you could buy special lamp lights that burn citronella, which is a natural repellent for insects. Also, you could plant marigolds, which also naturally repel insects. One of the most effective ways to keep mosqiotos away from your home would be to get rid of any items on your property that can collect water such as buckets, tires, and some bird-baths. Doing this will prevent them from laying their eggs, and thus preventing them from populating.
