Mosquitos spread avoidable diseases such as Zika, Dengue and Malaria
Mosquito-borne diseases are an area of concern in Singapore. While Singapore has seen outbreaks of Zika, the two diseases of major concern are: malaria and dengue. Mosquitoes are also the highest source of vector borne diseases in Singapore (other vectors include rats, rat fleas, cockroaches & flies).
Densely-packed populations make some parts of Singapore very susceptible to the outbreak of mosquito-borne diseases. Additionally, the primary vector of dengue, the Aedes aegypti mosquito, is very well-adapted to urban environments, preferring to breed, mate and feed near human dwellings.
Conventional mosquito control methods used indoors and outdoors can have limitations
Limited protection
Conventional mosquito control methods do not offer 24-hour protection.
Limited effectiveness
Fogging alone is not enough to control mosquito population.
Harmful to the environment
Mosquito repellent sprays may be harmful to insects and animals.
Exposure to pesticide and chemicals
Solutions such as mosquito coils may contain harmful ingredients.

All you need to know about mosquito control

How do I get rid of mosquitoes in Singapore?
The best way to get rid of mosquitoes is to eliminate sources of stagnant/standing water in your homes as they can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. This means emptying buckets, pot plates, and clearing roof gutters. Be sure to install window screens to prevent mosquitoes from flying inside and feasting on you for a blood meal. If you still happen to find mosquitoes in your premises, you may be suffering from an infestation. Therefore, you should contact a professional pest control service that can provide expert mosquito control solutions to get rid of them.
-
How do you keep mosquitoes from biting you?
Besides keeping your home free of stagnant water which prevents mosquitoes from entering your premises in the first place, you can also spray mosquito repellent and stick mosquito patches onto your skin to keep mosquitoes from biting you. However, the efficacy of repellents and patches will reduce over time, which means that you will have to keep reapplying them.
-
How can we identify dengue mosquitoes?
The dengue mosquito is actually called the Aedes Aegypti and they are easily identified by the black and white stripes on their bodies.
-
Do all mosquitoes carry the dengue virus?
No. Only the Aedes mosquito carries the virus for dengue fever. However, other mosquito species might carry other types of viruses and diseases, which is why we should be diligent about ensuring that our premises remain mosquito-free.
-
Where does the dengue mosquitoes live?
While they originated from Africa, the dengue mosquito has spread to many other tropical and subtropical countries and requires a warm and humid environment for their growth and development. This is why they are common in Singapore.
-
What happens when a dengue mosquito bites?
When a dengue mosquito bites a person with dengue fever, it becomes infected with the disease. As such, when it bites another person and sucks their blood, the dengue mosquito will transmit the disease to them via their saliva. Once the mosquito saliva enters the person's bloodstream, the person becomes infected and develops dengue fever symptoms.
