Mosquitoes larva with ineffective fogging will bring some other new fatal mosquitoes breed

It is a big problem all over India where all govt.’s department has been working without proper system or knowledge of what is the benefit or loss of it. Now civic officials have been adopting chemical Malathion or pyrethrum both of these chemicals is nothing but biological poison fogging to tackle our mosquito menace in the city. Health department is not systematic impact study on these chemicals. No doubt civic body the methods that is being used here are the same those used internationally.

It is clear that the mosquitoes are actively looking for food at dusk and dawn. Therefore fogging is done at those times have a high chance to killing the mosquitoes since mosquitoes are also active in doors, the fogman must fog in doors also. They can’t fog indoors if no one is at home to let them in the adults mosquitoes that they may be resting indoors may be spared.

In the spray mix of Malathion and diesel seems to have temporary effect on the mosquitoes for about two or three hours but after that they again regain consciousness. Further the fogging is taken on the sounds of the city in morning after sun rising late two hours speedily and most of the drains lying in the congested localities are left untouched. As a result the citizens have to continually face the attack of diseases like Malaria, dengue and chikungunya.

It is found fogging only kills the adult mosquitoes the young ones the larva are protected from the insecticide laden fog, only waiting for a few more days to emerge into adult mosquitoes. The new breed of mosquitoes after fogging on larva after short period it take new breed of mosquitoes it becomes so dangerous that fogging on mosquitoes used to kill them but this fogging for Malaria brought new breed of mosquitoes called Dengue and Dengue mosquitoes brought new breed of Chikungunya and now the adult mosquitoes of the chikungunya after breathing fogging of biological poison it will bring new breed of mosquitoes. May be the disease of this mosquitoes will be more fatal and dangerous it not curable easily than dengue and chikungunya. 

Continuously using the chemical Malathion for fogging purpose to check the growth of mosquitoes in city but  there is not any benefit of old chemical Malathion which has been used in fogging. Thus the precious public money is being literally going down the draining without any benefit of the denizens.

Fogging is not just spraying smoke in a vicinity. There are techniques involved. Beside the concentration of the patricidal the nozzle width, the speed of the fogmen, the swing techniques, the wind direction etc. are all important in killing mosquitoes. The nozzles of the fog machine may be dogged with dust. As a result the fogs are merely white thick smoke creating a few cough in the neighborhood leaving the mosquitoes unharmed.

Public say that even the fogging being done in some of the selected portions of the city using Malathion but it does not have any permanent effect to control the menace of mosquitoes.

Ludhiana Nagar Nigam health department’s officers have no care of fogging result what is the benefit of it or not  even they have not got check up the fogging kill mosquitoes or not. They do not know how much time fogging will take to spray smoke at same spot to kill mosquitoes. Ludhiana Nagar Nigam health department only fulfill the formality to spray fogging in city.

If there is not proper system of fogging and it is not good result to kill mosquitoes it is better to stop fogging. Otherwise ineffective fogging smoke will change mosquitoes larva chikunguniya into some other new fatal mosquitoes breed that may be more harmful dangerous than dengue malaria or chikunguniya .
