If you or someone around you has dengue fever, contact a specialist doctor immediately. This is a serious disease, hence one should not be careless.

To avoid dengue, maintain cleanliness inside and outside the house and do not allow garbage to accumulate. Do not allow water to accumulate around the house, as mosquitoes often breed in dirty water. If there are pits around you, fill them with soil or cement so that water does not accumulate.

Change the cooler water every two days and spray insecticides inside and outside the house. Use mosquito repellents. If you sleep on the terrace or in the open, use mosquito nets. Keep windows and doors closed in the evening so that mosquitoes cannot come inside. Always keep food items covered.

It is very important to be aware of dengue and inform others about it.
