Malaria, Dengue fever, Chikungunya… Meet the World’s Deadliest Animal.

The main thing about mosquitoes is that, when they are flying around, biting people, they can get really annoying. Spending the evening outdoors, or just on your balcony, can quickly turn into a nightmare if there’s no protection against them.

More seriously, mosquitoes are known to carry and transmit diseases and viruses such as Chikungunya, Malaria and Dengue fever. The itchiness that follows a bite causes much discomfort, and will be more painful for young children or for those experiencing repeated bites. Some people can experience acute allergic reactions to mosquito bites or skin infections due to the scratching.

In the case of businesses, the last thing your customers are looking for is to be bitten on your premises. It’s bad for your reputation, it’s a nuisance for your staff, and it can damage your reputation.

With an estimated 241 million malaria cases in 2020 in 85 malaria-endemic countries, mosquitoes are a very high-risk for people’s health.

In Mauritius, the main dangerous species that we encounter is the Asian Tiger Mosquito, known to transmit the yellow fever virus, dengue fever and Chikungunya.

Cover tightly all water storage containers such as water tanks, buckets or rain barrels.
Remove standing water from tyres, planters, toys, birdbaths, unused swimming pools, pots, or any other container where water collects and remains standing.
Repair potential cracks and gaps in your septic tank.
