    Prevention and Control:

    1. Repellants
    2. Wearing long sleeves and pants
    3. Roomsare fitted with screens
    4. Reducing the number of natural and artificial water-filled container habitats that support
    breeding of the mosquitoes
    5. Mobilization of affected communities
    6. Insecticides may be sprayed to kill flying mosquitoes
    7. Insecticides are applied to surfaces in and around containers where the mosquitoes land
    8. Insecticides are used to treat water in containers to kill the immature larvae
    9. Clothing minimizes skin exposure to the day-biting vectors
    10. Mosquito coils or other insecticide vaporizers may also reduce indoor biting.
