Elephantiasis occurs in the presence of microscopic, thread-like parasitic worms such as Wuchereria bancrofti (the most common), Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori (also known as B. timori), all of which are transmitted by bites from infected mosquitoes. It is a type of helminth infection.
It cannot be cured under any circumstances because its vaccine had not been found yet.
But some people only cause this.These mosquitoes bite less in hand and more in legs.



So please stay aware of these mosquitoes.


Hope you like it


Thank you
