Hi Roger and Erwin, I'm in the Hudson Valley region of NY, near West Point. There were confirmed crow deaths from West Nile in Rockland County, which is across the Hudson river from Westchester; last year there were confirmed animal/bird deaths (guess it also affects horses) in Rockland and I believe Dutchess Counties (Dutchess is the county north of Westchester and was home to IBM, and FDR's estate). We're in commuter range of NYC.
As far as the concoction - it is approximately equal parts aloe vera gel to CS, with slightly more of the aloe so it wasn't so runny - 3oz of each. I dissolved MSM caps in the CS prior to mixing, then added about 1/2 oz lavender oil. I made this based on a description of a product sold by an essential oil vendor; the president of that company supposedly developed this spray with aloe and lavender oil, and some kind of special water, and then demonstrated the efficacy of the product by searing his arm with a soldering iron at a lecture and immediately spraying his product on. Why anyone would go to those lengths is beyond me, but my version which is not sprayable and is more like the consistency of a watery jello has worked on minor burns, scrapes and is a nice moisturizer.
