Eliminating the aedes aegypti, best choice

Contramaestre, Nov. 18.- The Aedes Aegypti mosquito, that danger to human life, lives in our homes. It takes advantage of carelessness to reproduce and thereby lead to diseases that can cause death.

The presence of the Aedes Aegypti mosquito in Contramaestre, a vector that favors the circulation of dengue and other ailments, keeps health institutions on their feet.

However, there is a lack of risk perception, i.e. a responsible attitude on the part of many people, starting in their homes.

The population’s passivity in waiting for the fumigation can cause the female aedes aegypti mosquito to be in an open tank, or in a clean, stagnant water outlet, in a flowerpot or in a nylon in its yard, laying eggs, which can reach 400.

There is an urgent need to reverse this situation so that the fight against the mosquito is effective. Amarilis Chacón Zaldívar, a nurse in the office of family doctor number 28 in the town of Blanquizal, Maffo, says it.

If there is no mosquito, there is no dengue, that is not a trite phrase, it is a certainty. To avoid biting you or someone in your family, the first thing to do is to eliminate them from your home, your neighborhood, your community, and to maintain exquisite hygiene in your environment, not today or tomorrow, but every day.
