Get rid or destroy breeding grounds of mosquitoes as the dreaded dengue is now an all-year occurrence due to climate change. This was the statement disclosed by the Department of Health (DOH).
DOH Secretary Francisco Duque III, advised the public to get rid of used tires placed on the roofs of their houses as these are perfect breeding grounds for dengue-carrying mosquitoes known as Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes.
Duque also reiterated to residents to cover all water containers, replace waters in flower vases daily, regularly clean roof gutters, discard softdrink bottles, empty cans, and all receptacles to prevent dengue. (PIA)
