Keep Out Uninvited Aedes Mosquitoes During Your Vacation

Are you planning for a vacation in the coming months? Do you think that your homes are safe as long as you lock them up?

Holidaymakers tend to leave homes unattended for several days while enjoying their long vacation. It is during this time that Aedes mosquito breed in your homes and cause mosquito-borne disease such as dengue and chikungunya.

To help you travel with a peace of mind, the Air Sino-Euro Associates Travel (ASA Holidays) and the National Environment Agency (NEA) would like to encourage you to “mosquito-proof” your homes before leaving for your vacation.

Deny Aedes mosquitoes a place to breed in your homes by practicing the following steps before you leave for your holidays:

· Turn over all water storage containers and store them in dry sheltered areas.

· Cover toilet bowls, floor traps and bamboo pole holders.

· Add insecticide to vases and roof gutters.

Let’s work together to keep mozzies away this holiday season as you travel around the world with your loved ones.

ASA Holidays and NEA wish you a pleasant journey.

Bon Voyage!
