      Body is not fully covered in hot weather which increases biting area by infected mosquito.

      Improper netting and frequent opening of doors and windows during hot weather makes it easy for mosquito to enter into house and stay into cool places and bite during morning and evening.

      Water is stored in open bucket and container, storage water containers are not properly covered which helps in breeding. When water is stored for more than 3 days in open containers.

      Poor surveillance and shortage of fund support makes transmission report non available and spread of infected patient to distant area.

The Government is taking following preventive steps to control it:

      From time to time Public awareness messages are being published through electronic and print media to adopt precautionary measures and to improve water storage practices.

      Seminars and workshops, in collaboration with WHO and other donor agencies are being organized to aware the general public about dengue, precautionary measures, personal hygiene and to train the health care providers.

      Fogging and fumigation is also being done from time to time.

      Provincial government is providing medicines for spray and district government is purchasing the same, as well.

      Impregnated nets have been provided by Federal and Provincial Governments to all districts of Sindh for dengue cases.

      Proper solid waste disposal.
