As we all know, malaria is an infection that is caused by a bite from a female anopheles mosquito 🦟. However, there is a microorganism in the body of this mosquito (called plasmodium malariae) which is released into the body of anybody the mosquito bites, thereby leading to Malaria.

The following can be done to avoid malaria ;

• clean the environment thoroughly to avoid stagnant waters and moist places because this a moist environment is mosquito friendly and a stagnant water is a good place for laying their eggs.

• always sleep under a mosquito net so as to avoid the invasion of mosquito

• wear long sleeves when sleeping

• make sure to report to your doctor if feeling the signs and symptoms of malaria which includes; headache, fever that maybe accompanied with rigor, loss of appetite et cetera.

• the use of an insecticide is also applicable to eradicate mosquitoes but certain precautions must be taken while using insecticides.
