The World Health Organization is also trying to control this situation but they also don’t get satisfactory output, the patients of malaria, chikun guniya are increasing in large numbers.

The anopheles stephensi species of mosquito is responsible for causing the malaria disease. The anopheles Stephensi breeds in stagnant water like water tanks, overhear tanks, rain water collected in tarpaulin, tyers & water wells.

Treatment for Mosquito Control

The treatment is divided in two parts :

Larval Management (ANTI-LARVAL TREATMENT)

The mosquito growth is through 4 instars - egg, larva, pupa & adult. Larval stage is the weakest stage in mosquito life cycle & it is easy to control by spraying the breeding places thoroughly by using suitable Larvicide. The water collected area & all water bodies present at the site are sprayed thoroughly by hand compression spray. The larval stage is completed in 4 to 10 days so it is necessary to treat the water bodies on weekly interval.

Adult Management (RESIDUAL SPRAYING)

The spraying will be done by using chemical having residual effect. All possible resting places of mosquito like labour hutments, garbage area, toilet, bathroom, darken places, ducts, gutter line, garden area etc; are treated by spray thoroughly.

 

FOGGING : The fogging will be done by using fogger machine. The ultra low volume form chemical is used which is mixed in diesel. Fogging is done at the time of dusk hours as the frequency of mosquito is high at that time.
