CDC Mosquito Control

CDC Mosquito Control involves strategies to reduce mosquito populations and limit their ability to spread diseases like Zika, West Nile, and dengue. This includes removing standing water where mosquitoes breed, applying targeted insecticides, and using biological controls like introducing natural predators. Public education on protective measures—such as using screens, repellents, and wearing long sleeves—is also essential. These efforts aim to lower mosquito numbers and minimize disease transmission, promoting safer, healthier communities while balancing environmental considerations.
