When a mosquito infects you with a viral disease such as Zika or dengue, it does more than just deliver a few virus particles under your skin. The saliva it injects also causes an inflammation that helps the virus multiply and quickly spread to other parts of your body, according to a new study. The research suggests that there might be a surprisingly easy way to prevent infections in people who have just been bitten: applying an anti-inflammatory cream to the bite site.

When mosquitoes bite, they inject a tiny amount of their saliva (less than a microliter), which contains a specialized, potent cocktail of molecules that numb the pain of the bite and stop the blood from clotting. Many pathogens hitch a ride in the saliva, and they, too, seem to benefit: Mice develop more severe infections when a virus is injected by a mosquito than by a researcher using a needle. But, until now, it had been unclear why.
