August and September are the peak months for mosquito-borne illnesses in the U.S. New cases of dengue fever, eastern equine encephalitis and West Nile virus are still being reported in many states.

Dengue cases are abnormally high both nationally and globally.

Rising global temperatures are creating more opportunities for mosquitoes to breed, experts say.

Eastern equine encephalitis, or EEE , is more serious and deadly than dengue or West Nile , but also more rare.

The disease is primarily a threat in Eastern and Gulf Coast states.

There are no specific treatments for mosquito-borne diseases so doctors typically prescribe supportive care such as fluids and rest.
