Releases of male Wolbachia-Aedes mosquitoes to suppress Aedes aegypti mosquito population
Male Wolbachia-Aedes mosquitoes will be released twice a week, as indicated in the schedule below. This schedule is subject to changes (e.g. due to public holidays).
Residents may see more mosquitoes during the release period, but these male mosquitoes released do not bite or transmit disease. Wolbachia is safe. Stay vigilant and continue to keep your premises free from mosquito breeding.
