::I have a Lilac Crowned which goes outdoors with us. We travel in a RV. What is the risk factor with the rising problem with WNV?
While there have been some parrots who have been tested positive for WNV, it is not a huge problem at this time.
I would take precautions, perhaps use skeeter netting, do not let your bird be outside during the early morning and evening when mosquitos are active. Hope this helps
