Florida’s Republican governor wants President Obama to boost mosquito prevention in his state to fight the Zika virus, saying he can’t “waste any time” waiting for Congress to approve funding.

Gov. Rick Scott told Obama in a letter Wednesday that the state needs resources such as insecticides to kill mosquitoes. The Zika virus is primarily spread by bites from two types of mosquito and so far is not spreading via mosquitoes in the continental U.S.
