Don't worry. They are probably immune to it.

I've been bit my millions or maybe billions of mosquitos in my life time. I don't fear getting bit and am pretty sure there's no way I could get west Nile. Pretty sure my body has built up a tolerance to anything a mosquito could give me.

I'm sure it's the same for them and ticks.
