The town hall carries out actions to fight against Aedes aegypti in the neighborhoods of Brusque

The town hall of Brusque carried out control actions against Aedes aegyptitransmitter of dengue fever, Zika virus and chikungunya fever, in the neighborhood of Souza Cruz, this Thursday 3. The streets were sprayed with insecticide applications in so-called infested places, that is to say where many outbreaks of dengue have been observed.

Officers also conducted inspections and guided residents to remove any debris, which could be breeding grounds for mosquitoes or gutters and other places with standing water.

The Director of Health Monitoring, Ariane Fischer, stresses that these actions will be continuous. “Our team is working hard to fight the mosquito. But for that we also need the support of the community, that they continue to receive our agents at home”.

On Friday the 4th, the Santa Terezinha neighborhood, in ST 006 streets, Leopoldo Heil, Luiz Albani, George Boeing, José Vendelino Reis and João Habitzreuter will receive the shares.

Complaint number

Ariane draws attention to the care of the population and indicates that complaints are filed. “People can report it by phone, either WhatsApp or calls to (47) 98813-0095 which teams will investigate.”
