STRATEGY

  1. Early case detection & prompt treatment (EDPT) to patients through passive surveillance institutions such as hospitals, dispensaries and malaria clinics.
  2. Recurrent anti-larval measures through conventional larvicides in towns.
  3. Minor engineering methods like source reduction, channelisation, de-weeding, etc.
  4. Biological control using larvivorous fish at appropriate breeding sites.
  5. IEC campaigns for community awareness and their involvement.
