This is a nice topic and I will like to add my voice to it. I believe to eliminate mosquitoes we need more than insecticide.We need to imbibe a thorough habit of cleanliness for mosquitoes live in stinking and dirty areas. We must ensure our kitchens are always clean and all dirty plates and pots are washed always. In the same vein our toilet and bathrooms must not be left out. We must ensure they are always neat.

Cleanliness is the best strategy to eliminate these little vampires. Its so happen we are always in the losing side because they were never eliminated and thus they multiply and continue to give us headache. There must be a good vaccine now against this virus, where are our scientists and chemists to manufacture this medicine so that even if we are bitten by them, we will not be affected by dengue, chickungunya, zika and yellow fever.

Mosquitoes live to thrive on the dirt and the leftovers the credit of which goes to a human being.
Human being is considered as the most intelligent and is known for his rational thinking. Unfortunately, he is not taking proper care of the environment he lives in. He became totally indisciplined. Wearing suit and Boot, applying perfume on the whole body and dress does not make one a cultured man. He should know how to live comfortably and his existence should not cause panic to others but should give a sigh of relief. Is he doing that?
He eats and the leftovers are thrown right in front of the others house to take proper care of that material to which the latter does not care at all. There won’t be any dustbin to be found in around any corner of any street. The other materials included the old oily clothes, damaged foods , vegetables, fruits, spoiled mutton , chicken , and pork pieces, whisper pads, clothes used cleaning the house, spoiled tiffin, breakfast, nails, hair, razors, old chappals, sandals , socks, giving reverberating odor, not to mention, the list runs in thousands. When such dearest and tasty food collected in and around a locality it is quite convenient for the mosquitoes to make a comfortable living on them.
We need not kill , fight , or eradicate mosquitoes but we should eradicate uncleanliness in the premises we live in. This tendency is prevalent more in India because here the people are irresponsible towards themselves and never take responsibility for the society. Here they learn everything by Hunter lashes but not by words. Some foreigner should point out this position in a humiliating manner in his report . Even then everything goes right and takes twist and turns and the courts in India are already there to take a lenient view of everything without going deep into the gravity of the situation and to allow stay orders against the action proposed.
One will be wondered to observe that in most of the schools run by Government there are no Toilets for Boys and Girls. They take pleasure in going to the near by empty places or fields. The officials swallow whatever is released as per their mutual understanding with the Bureaucrts and Politicians. Totally shameless ceature on the planet Earth.
It is not necessary to eradicate the mosquitoes but to develop a sense of social resp;onsibility and cleanliness is more im;portant with particular reference to India. The P:rime Minister is introducing many schemes and concentrating on this issue more. But there is more to be taken up on war footing basis whole heartedlyh. Mr. Modi is the only Prime Minister who could concentrate on this issue and evolved a scheme to clean the entire country . Still the people of India are not considering or thinking over it seriously. Who should tell them. ? Should my neighbour come and clean my house?-
Wow, that was long explanation here about mosquito. You really did some good research about our little insects. Anyway its always good to be always aware about this diseases. What we should do the right thing, cleanliness in our surrounding where this mosquito thrive.

Thanks for sharing the reality of some places in our country. Siva is right too, we need to clean our surroundings. If we always clean our area, but we are not so sure if our neighbors also do the same.There are many stupid neighbors this time.
Before I go to sleep, I spray our sala and other rooms with Quick.I also bought mosquito killer lamp I bought on line at Lazada. In the day, we always plug 24/7 Baygon in current. We are doing these things because we have children at home ages 4 and 6, my nephews.
If everyone is willing to accept cleanliness as way to a healthy life, then there will be no dengue at all.-
That is a practical way to shoo the mosquito. Of course when we are aware that they are here and we do something to eliminate them, it will always be a good move. But if we do nothing and just let the mosquito roam around our home, then our children will be in vulnerable situation. Its better to act now than act later.

We went through, and go through, various epidemics which are kept off the front page due to lack of a blood test.
When I got Chik-V they didn’t do a blood test, they didn’t tell me to come in, they announced.. there is no cure. Use paracetamin.
Thousands upon thousands got it and some died.
We got Zika late last year and again, no blood tests. I had it. My doctor smiled, gave me paracetamin. That’s it.
A lot of preg. women have it and will be giving birth to sick babies.

that is really disappointing the modern medicine got no cure for this viruses from mosquito, and yes all they advice is for us to take some paracetamol. So, people in village just becoming scientist now by trying the wild shrubs. I think some get a nice try because they believe a kind of shrub said to cure dengue. But then again, the medical society said we should not take that extract because it might cause some danger to us. But people are helpless and they tried it and said it works for them.

The place where mosquitoes thrive is stagnant water. Even a small bottle is enough for them to thrive. Water in flower vases for example could be a good source. Water needs to be replaced from time to time.
-
That is true and its good we change them. I learned that while its true the water are their nest but when they are pour in the soil, for example, the egg do not die or damaged, instead it stays good up to six months. So, during summer, mosquito might disappear, but when rainy season come, the eggs hatched and the mosquito are here again (sigh, the sad truth why mosquito are still here)

Seems to me that illegal drugs are easier to eliminate than mosquito. Look, its been years now and still the mosquito continue to infect us dengue, chikungunya and now zika. No cure for this virus and all the doctor can say is to have stronger immune system and take a lots of fruits and also paracetamol.

Mosquito is a problem in every society because it creates many mysterious diseases among man and women and children and many of them die due to mosquito stinging anon. In this matter the government can do nothing because we cannot kill any mosquito from the whole country.
Masquito causes theses Diseases as transmitted by mosquitoes include: malaria, dengue, West Nile virus, chikungunya, yellow fever, filariasis, Japanese encephalitis, Saint Louis encephalitis, Western equine encephalitis, Eastern equine encephalitis, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, La Crosse encephalitis and Zika fever.
Mosquitoes cause more human suffering than any other organism — over one million people worldwide die from mosquito-borne diseases every year. Not only can mosquitoes carry diseases that afflict humans, they also transmit several diseases and parasites that dogs and horses are very susceptible to. These include dog heartworm, West Nile virus (WNV) and Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE). In addition, mosquito bites can cause severe skin irritation through an allergic reaction to the mosquito’s saliva –
this is what causes the red bump and itching. Mosquito vectored diseases include protozoan diseases, i.e., malaria, filarial diseases such as dog heartworm, and viruses such as dengue, encephalitis and yellow fever. CDC Travelers’ Health provides information on travel to destinations where human-borne diseases might be a problem.
