Treatment for mosquitoes
Residual spraying
In this treatment we spray a colorless and odorless insecticide on the walls. The insecticide is harmless for human beings. The mosquitoes sit on the wall, come in contact with the insecticide and die. This mosquito control treatment is effective for 15-30 days.
Thermal Fogging
In this method fog is spread using the machine in the outside areas which kills the mosquitoes as contact happens. This is an effective method for mosquito prevention.
Cold Fogging
In this method spraying is done at outside places where mosquitoes breed such as plants ,flower vessel etc. The spray solution is prepared by mixing chemical with water.
Anti-Larva Treatment
Once stagnant water accumulate at places outside the house , mosquitoes lay eggs which are very harmful. Anti-larve treatment is done here by spreading chemical solution over the site.
