mosquito spray prevention

The US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has teamed up with the American Mosquito Control Association to produce a volume of resources to guide mosquito control in areas affected by natural disasters like hurricanes

The information and advice is available in the latest edition of the Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, which notes that ‘hurricanes present several public health concerns, including a rapid surge in mosquito populations, which can disrupt recovery efforts and could lead to increased risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile’. The resources provide local and state entities with information to help them prepare and respond to natural disasters as they relate to mosquitoes and mosquito-borne diseases. The magazine includes real-world examples, research, and lessons learned from authors representing federal and state agencies, mosquito control programmes and health departments in Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Texas, research organisations, and the military.
