Fight against Aedes aegypti mosquito

ACIF (Funchal Chamber of Commerce),  Madeira Tourism Board and IA Saude (local Health Authority) and hoteliers participated in a joint training programme on 30 November 2012, regarding preventative methods which all should be implementing to reduce the Aedes aegypti mosquito population, vector of the Dengue virus which gives causes Dengue Fever. 

In the studies and monitoring program, BG Sentinel mosquito traps, represented by ZINO, are used.

All traps have the same efficiency for Aedes aegypti mosquito, although the introduction of CO2 has further increases this efficiency - more information in how does it work and research.

We currently have in stock Biogents Mosquitaire and Mosquitito traps.

Update on autochthonous dengue cases in Madeira, Portugal, by the ECDC

20/11/2012

0 Comments

 
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control have released an update regarding the dengue fever outbreak in Madeira, dated 20 November 2012.

A summary of the report and the report itself can be consulted here: report


Main conclusions:
  • This is the first sustained transmission of dengue in the European Union since the 1920s. Autochthonous transmission is likely to continue until the end of the year when mosquito density will probably decrease.
  • The epidemiological situation does not imply any trade or travel restriction beyond the disinfestations currently being implemented. 
  • As the influenza transmission season will commence around the end of the year, concomitant actions for monitoring dengue and influenza are being launched in Madeira.
  • Aircraft disinfection and control of vector mosquitoes at ports and airports in Madeira should be continued.
  • Protective measures to avoid mosquito bites is still a key recommendation

Almost all reported cases relate to the resident population and most municipalities of Madeira have reported at least one case of dengue infection among their residents. So far twenty-five visitors to Madeira have been diagnosed with dengue since returning to mainland Portugal (nine), United Kingdom (six), Germany (seven), Sweden (one) and France (two).

Health Authorities start fogging to reduce Aedes aegypti mosquito population in Madeira

17/11/2012

DN-Madeira
Local news paper and TV station have confirmed that Madeira Regional Health Authorities have started fogging public spaces in an integrated action to reduce the Aedes aegypti mosquito population, vector of Dengue virus.

Prevention including the elimination of breeding areas and prevention from getting bitten are still the key actions which all the population must participate to reduce the mosquito population, especially as with the slight decrease in temperature, the mosquito will search for warmer environments including homes.
Biogents traps are scientifically proven as efficient mosquito traps, especially the Dengue virus vector Aedes aegypti mosquito.
