A mosquito net hanging over a bed for use as a protective measure against mosquito bites. Physical barriers are becoming increasingly important in preventing malaria as the parasite becomes resistant to traditional anti-malarial drugs (chloroquinine). Malaria is caused by a parasitic protozoan carried in the saliva of Onopheles mosquitoes. Malaria causes a severe fever,& in some cases complications affecting the kidneys,brain,liver & blood,which can be fatal. Alternative measures against mosquitoes include wearing protective clothing,using insecticides,limiting breeding areas and even releasing sterile nmale mosquitoes | |
