Fears of the Zika virus Demand For Mosquito Repellent Products 


On August 5, 2016, Laura Entis wrote and article about how there started to be fear over the Zika

Drive demand for mosquito-repellent products. Usually the demand for bug-repellent in the U.S in

February is low but the sales for Invisaband's signature blue wrist band, which is known for mostly

repelling mosquitos were up by 400% in only the month of August alone. The virus originated in the

1940s and didn't speed into the Western Hemisphere until this spring.The virus flared up really bad in

south and Central America and though no one has gotten a mosquito bite everyone is still really

skeptical about it. The companies that produce mosquito repellent like Invisaband have had to

increase the amount of supplies that they buy and double the amount of wristbands that he was going

to order at first.This has also made the producer come up with different products like a mosquito net

to catch them. Because of this virus the sellers had to start producing more products and also had to

coke up with new products because the factory that they use is in China and it was closed for there

products and also the shipment wasn't gonna come until March. Articles like this makes you really

think about all that it takes to become a seller, producer, entrepreneur, or anything like that.Gretchboettcher@gmail.com
