While congress has dragged its’ feet on approving a spending bill to combat the spread of Zika virus (which has spread to 60 countries and is blamed for more than 1,600 birth defects), New York has, in true New York fashion, taken the bull by the horns and implemented a comprehensive 4-borough pesticide program to eliminate the little buggers and in turn, the avenue through which Zika spreads.
Might there be a health risk? Sure…but it is really, really nice living without all those bugs!
