After the typhoon rain
Be wary of mosquito breeding
According to the Central Meteorological Observatory, the tropical depression weakened by Typhoon Bebinca, the 13th typhoon this year, moved from Jieshou City, Anhui Province to Zhoukou City, Henan Province in the early morning of this morning (September 18). Affected by it, there are heavy rainstorms in parts of eastern Henan and southwestern Shanxi today.
Typhoon No. 14 "Prasang" moved into the eastern part of the East China Sea on the night of the 18th and will make landfall (tropical storm or severe tropical storm) along the coast of Zhejiang from the afternoon to the evening of the 19th, and then gradually weaken in intensity. Moderate to heavy rain is expected in coastal areas of Zhejiang and northern Fujian today.
After Typhoon Prassan, one or two more typhoons will form in the South China Sea and the Northwest Pacific Ocean in the next 10 days, one of which may affect the southeastern coastal areas of the mainland...... That's almost a typhoon rhythm a week!
After heavy rains, a large number of mosquitoes are likely to breed, and it is necessary to be vigilant against mosquito-borne infectious diseases such as Japanese encephalitis, dengue fever and malaria.
Learn these 4 countermeasures
Mosquitoes retreat!
Remove stagnant water
Regularly clean up all kinds of natural stagnant water in the external environment of the community
Residents regularly clean up containers that may accumulate water in their yards and indoors, such as flower pot trays, water dispenser trays, and floor drains, to keep the containers dry and clean.
Remove weeds, sanitary dead spots and garbage.
Physical isolation
1. Install screen doors and windows, check the gaps between doors and windows, and reduce the chance of mosquitoes entering the room
2. Use a mosquito net during rest and make sure the mesh of the net is small enough to prevent mosquitoes from entering.
Outdoor protection
1. It is recommended to wear light-colored long-sleeved pants when going out to reduce skin exposure.
2. Mosquito repellent can be used on exposed skin areas, and the dosage and frequency of use should be applied to exposed areas of the skin according to the product instructions, or sprayed on clothing.
3. Infants and young children should mainly use physical mosquito prevention methods during outdoor activities, including wearing loose mosquito protection clothing and pants, and using gauze towels or special small mosquito nets on strollers.
Extermination measures
1. Indoor mosquito control is mainly based on electric mosquito swatters, mosquito killer lamps, etc., which can be supplemented by electric mosquito coils.
2. When the mosquito density is high, or when there are local epidemics of mosquito-borne infectious diseases such as dengue fever and Japanese encephalitis, it is necessary to purchase and use regular sanitary insecticide products to control mosquitoes, reduce the density, and prevent the epidemic of mosquito-borne diseases.
What to do after being bitten?
If you are bitten by a mosquito, do not scratch repeatedly to avoid local infection or allergic dermatitis. Generally, after 10~15 minutes, the itching sensation will subside significantly. If the itching is unbearable, it can be washed with soapy water or salt water to relieve the itching. If the redness and swelling spread and the oozing does not stop, you should seek medical attention promptly.
