Chemicals e. Always ask for professionals to spray against vectors. Overview Many diseases are spread by vectors. Vectors are insects or animals that spread an infectious disease through a bite, or contact with their urine, faeces, blood, etc. Vectors include mosquitoes, flies, ticks, rodents, cockroaches and fleas. Diseases spread by vectors include malaria , dengue fever , Zika , chikungunya , yellow fever , Rift Valley fever and plague.
How you can help It is very important to remember that spraying chemicals to get rid of vectors can be dangerous, especially if you do not have the proper equipment or materials and do not know how to spray safely. Only help if you are trained or guided by a well-trained person. Volunteers can nevertheless help in many other ways, including by promoting recommended hygiene and sanitation practices.
Talk to people in your community about storing food and water properly, keeping shelters and houses clean, cleaning the environment, using bed nets at night, and wearing clothing for example, with long sleeves that protects against vectors such as mosquitoes. See the table on the other side of this card for more information on how volunteers can help.
