Ketei, Savudrodro village, Savarekareka, WAF , RPA, St Bedes Dorm, St Andrews Primary School, St Bedes Secondary School Compound This initiative is part of our ongoing efforts to reduce mosquito population and prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever.

Important Information for Residents:

  • The insecticide in the fog is not harmful to human at the low concentration used and it has no odour.
  • Fogging operations are conducted in the early morning or late afternoon as this is the time when the outdoor dengue mosquito vector is most active.
  • Residents are advised not to be concerned about the fog and are also requested to leave their doors and windows open when the fogging machine is in their area, so that the fog can kill mosquitoes in the homes.
  • Residents are also advised to continue destroying dengue mosquitoes breeding places in their yard and to protect themselves and their family from mosquito bites.

 The Ministry looks forward to the co-operation of community members listed above in ensuring the success of this program. 

Together, we can create a healthier and safer environment.
