Another New Orleans Question for Dr. von Almen

Hi Dr. von Almen! I posted to you recently about eating New Orleans seafood. My most recent fear surrounds the West Nile Virus. Yesterday, there was a dead bird outside of my house. I called the Humane Society to report it (I saw a news report that said any dead birds should be reported immediately). I was told to put the bird in a box and call agin on Monday. However, my husband was not home, and I did not want to touch the bird. It was later gone. Now I'm freaking out about the mosquitoes around my home. (I live in Metairie.) Is this fear irrational? Also, is it safe for me to wear insect repellant? If so, is there any particular one that is safer than others? Thanks for your help!!
