Mosquito Control in Construction Sites

weekly measures

Conduct inspections to identify potential mosquito breeding sites at the construction site. Focus areas include:

Unused containers, building waste areas, and site offices
Building materials, equipment, and canvas sheets
Ground-level puddles and stagnant water
Concrete floors on upper levels and basements
Water storage drums, tanks, and containers
Bulk waste storage areas
Trenches and excavation sites
Lift wells and safety barriers
Rooftops, water tanks, and treatment plants
Any other containers or areas where water may collect

Application of insecticide or anti-mosquito chemical

Involves consistent application of insecticide or anti-mosquito oil to fixed water sources and containers located in the soil layer and above ground on a weekly basis. Reapplying after rainfall is necessary to compensate for possible erosion or removal of the applied material.

Desturction of mosquito breeding

Inspections involve the systematic elimination of any identified mosquito breeding sites and the treatment or removal of potential breeding habitats using insecticides. Additionally, any breeding instances and potential breeding areas identified should be reported to the construction site supervisor, so that they can quickly implement appropriate measures.

Fogging

Fogging is not obligatory at construction sites. It should only be carried out in cases of mosquito-related nuisance or disease outbreaks to effectively address the specific problem at hand.
