Due to the early arrival of the rainy season, the hatch season of the mosquitoes were also brought forward, therefore this epidemic of dengue. And many other factors like global warming, which surge a rise in temperatures, therefore providing a good breeding ground for the mosquitoes. However, the dengue cases are on the path of decreasing already.
But dear friends, please do not let your guards down against these silent killers. We ought to protect our family and love ones by doing what's right, as the media kept on emphasizing and reminding. The 10-min mozzie sweep through the household is important, checking to see if there are any areas with stagnant waters for breeding.
Besides playing a part at home, we should play a part as citizens of Singapore, by being observant around our neighbourhood, check wherever with the possibilities of breeding mosquitoes. The drains, leaves, idle cans and rubbish around. Should you find any signs of breeding, please contact 1800-333-7777/1800-X-Dengue.
Besides the mozzie wipe for prevention, it would be better to conduct annihilation procedures. When the house is empty (no one is at home), spray insecticide at dark corners where adults mosquitoes would be most likely to hide. Make good use of products like mosquito coils (prevent usage when no one is at home to prevent fire risk), sprays, repellant.
