Dear Sir
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The roads in this area of the city are in very bad condition. They have not been repaired for the last over three years. The roads have so many pitfalls which sometimes cause accidents to unwary drivers.
The streets are not swept properly and regularly. There are not a sufficient number of dustbins and people throw rubbish here and there. During rains water collects here and there and drains overflow. The water stagnates giving rise to mosquito menace and malaria. I fail to understand why the authorities do not rise to the occasion and meet this menace to public health. At times it becomes very difficult to pass by the heaps of garbage and overflowing drains giving out strong nauseating smell.
I hope this complaint would not fall on deaf ears and you would take immediate necessary steps to improve the sanitary condition in this locality.
Yours sincerely
Answer:
The insecticide used in the mosquito foggingis a synthetic pyrethroid that is very similar to the insecticides used in most domestic insect spray cans that are found on supermarket shelves.Fogging is a technique used for killing insects that involves using a fine pesticide spray (aerosol) which is directed by a blower. In some cases, a hot vapour may be used to carry the spray and keep it airborne for longer. Fast-acting pesticides like pyrethroids are typically used.So, when you are mosquito fogging, for the first week you should fog your target area every day or every two days to disrupt their breeding cycle. This will help you get rid of all the adult mosquitoes and their eggs. After that, you can increase the fogging interval to once per week.
