How Aedes mosquitoes breed

Placeholder text: this section is awaiting review by a qualified health professional. It is not medical advice.

Aedes mosquitoes lay eggs in clean, standing water. Common breeding sites are flower pots, discarded containers, tyres, water pooled on rooftops, open water tanks and water collected at construction sites. Even a small amount of water is enough.

In an emergency, go to the nearest health facility or call the Shasthya Batayon health line on 16263.
