Exposed to sunlight and


associated to floating
vegetation in pools,
quiet places in slowrunning streams, rice
fields. Also in artificial

Above the water line in


pools with clean water.
The preferred habitats
are water storage tanks
and jars inside the and
outside houses.

Buried on rotting organic


material (human
(garbage, excreta).

morning or evening.
Rest indoors and outdoor Hey rest often outdoors.
sheltered resting sites

Active during the day.


Resting indoors.

Sphere

All disaster affected people have the


knowledge and the means to protect
themselves from diseases and nuisance
vectors that are likely to represent a
significant risk to health or well-being.

Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs)

LLINs are nets treated in the factory


with an insecticide incorporated into
the net fabric which makes the
insecticide last at least 3 years of
recommended use under field
conditions.
PermaNet which is treated with
55mg/m2 of deltamethrin to coat
fibres.

LLINs distribution in emergency

Niger Red Cross

Target population: Children U5 + Pregnant


women
1 LLIN per household (mother sleeps
together with the newborn).
House-to-house visits to ensure proper
hanging and usage. This might be
integrated in ongoing health programmes.
In special and urgent situations, this
activity can be linked to indoor residual
spraying (IRS).

Insecticide spraying

Specialist attention and involvement of


local authorities
Detailed vector study: its resting and
biting behaviour and its susceptibility to
insecticides.
Trained personnel and protection
equipment.
Acceptance of space-spraying by
communities.

Sphere
The numbers of diseases vectors that pose a risk
to peoples health and nuisance vectors that
pose a risk to peoples well-being are kept to an
acceptable level.
Chemical vector control measures are carried out
in a manner that ensures that staff, the people
affected by the disaster and the local
environment are adequately protected. And
avoids creating resistance to the substances
used.

Wall spraying technique

13

International Federation
of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies

Spraying operation
1. Calculating total surface area to be sprayed
2. Calculating the amount of insecticide needed
for one round of spraying
3. Personnel required:
a) 1 person / 5 Ha / 8-10 houses / day
b) Maximum 4 hours / day

4. Equipment required (spare parts, protection


equipment)
5. Calculating the time needed to cover the area
(spraying time + transport + evacuation +
pressurizing or filling with fuel).

Deltametrine
Pyrethroid insecticide: kills insects on contact and through
digestion.
Available as 2.5% water-dispersible powder. At a dosage of 0.05
g/m2 effective for mosquitoes - it usually remains effective for
2-3 months.
Toxic for human by inhalation or direct contact (gloves and mask
are key protective gear)
High toxicity to fish, bees and aquatic herbivorous insects
In soil, degradation occurs within 1-2 weeks.
There is no degradation in storage for 6 months at 40 degrees C.
It is considered stable when exposed to air and sunlight.
