ʻO ka wehewehe pōkole: • ʻO kēia makahiki ka manawa mua i hana ʻia ai ka hāʻule ʻana o ka larvicide maʻamau i ka ʻāpana. ʻO ka pahuhopu ke kōkua i ka hoʻōki ʻana i ka laha ʻana o nā maʻi e hiki mai ana e nā makika. • Mai ka makahiki 2017, ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o 3 mau kānaka i hōʻike maikaʻi i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Hoʻolālā ʻo Kalana ʻo San Diego e hana i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka larvicide maʻamau maʻamau ma nā ala wai kūloko he 52 i kēia makahiki no ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā makika mai ka hoʻolaha ʻana i nā maʻi e like me ka West Nile virus.
Ua ʻōlelo nā luna o ke kalana e hāʻule nā helikopterlarvicidesinā pono i ka Pōʻakolu a me ka Pōʻalima e uhi i kahi kokoke i 1,400 ʻeka o nā wahi hiki ke hoʻohua namu.
Ma hope o ka puka ʻana mai o ka maʻi maʻi West Nile i nā makahiki 2000, ua hoʻomaka ke kalana e hoʻohana i nā helikopter e hoʻolei i ka larvicide granular paʻa i loko o nā wahi paʻakikī o ka wai kū i nā kahawai, nā kahawai, nā loko a me nā kino wai ʻē aʻe kahi e hānau ai nā makika. Hoʻopuka ke kalana i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i nā larvicide ma kahi o hoʻokahi mahina mai ʻApelila a ʻOkakopa.
ʻAʻole e hoʻopōʻino ka larvicide i ka poʻe a me nā holoholona, akā e pepehi i ka namu ma mua o ka lilo ʻana i namu nahu.
ʻO ka maʻi maʻi o West Nile ka maʻi nui o nā manu. Eia nō naʻe, hiki i nā makika ke hoʻoili i ka maʻi maʻi make i ke kanaka ma o ka ʻai ʻana i nā manu i maʻi ʻia a laila nahu i nā kānaka.
He maʻalahi ka hopena o ka maʻi maʻi West Nile ma San Diego County i nā makahiki i hala iho nei. Mai ka makahiki 2017, ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻekolu mau kānaka i hōʻike maikaʻi i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Akā, he pōʻino nō naʻe a pono e haʻalele nā kānaka i ka makika.
ʻO nā hāʻule larvicidal he ʻāpana wale nō ia o kahi hoʻolālā hoʻokele vector piha. Nānā pū nā keʻena hoʻomalu vector kalana ma kahi o 1,600 mau wahi hoʻohua namu i kēlā me kēia makahiki a hoʻohana i nā larvicide me nā ʻano hana like ʻole (aea, waʻa, kalaka, a me ka lima). Hāʻawi pū ia i nā iʻa ʻai makika manuahi i ka lehulehu, nānā a mālama i nā loko ʻauʻau i haʻalele ʻia, hoʻāʻo i nā manu make no West Nile virus, a nānā i ka heluna namu no nā maʻi hiki ke lawe ʻia e ka makika.
Ke hoʻomanaʻo nei nā luna hoʻomalu vector o ke Kalana i ka poʻe e pale iā lākou iho mai nā makika ma loko a ma kahi o ko lākou mau home ma o ka ʻimi ʻana a hoʻokahe i ka wai kū i mea e pale ai i ka hoʻohua ʻana o nā pōpoki.
Pono nā hana pale namu i ke kōkua lehulehu i nā makahiki i hala iho nei no ka mea, ua hoʻokumu ʻia kekahi mau ʻano hou o nā makika Aedes invasive ma ʻaneʻi. ʻO kekahi o kēia mau makika, inā loaʻa lākou i ka maʻi ma muli o ka nahu ʻana i kahi mea maʻi a hānai i nā mea ʻē aʻe, hiki ke hoʻolaha i nā maʻi ʻaʻole i loaʻa ma ʻaneʻi, e like me Zika, dengue fever a me chikungunya. Makemake nā makika Aedes invasive e noho a hānai ma nā hale a me nā pā o nā kānaka.
Wahi a nā luna hoʻomalu vector o ke kalana ʻo ke ala maikaʻi loa no ka poʻe e pale aku iā lākou iho mai ka makika, ʻo ia ka hahai ʻana i nā kuhikuhi "Prevent, Protect, Report".
E hoʻolei a wehe paha i kekahi mea i loko a i waho paha o kou home e paʻa ai ka wai, e like me nā ipu pua, nā auwai, nā bākeke, nā ʻōpala, nā mea pāʻani, nā kaʻa kahiko a me nā huila. Loaʻa ka iʻa makika me ka uku ʻole ma o ka polokalamu hoʻokele vector a hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia e hoʻomalu i ka hoʻohua ʻana o ka makika ma nā kumu wai kū i nā kīhāpai home e like me nā loko ʻauʻau mālama ʻole ʻia, nā loko, nā pūnāwai a me nā ʻau lio.
E pale iā ʻoe iho mai nā maʻi i lawe ʻia e ka makika ma ke komo ʻana i nā lole lima lōʻihi a me nā pālule a i ʻole ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea hoʻomake i ka wā ma waho. E hoʻohana i kahi mea hoʻomaʻamaʻa pepekeDEET, picaridin, aila lemon eucalyptus, a i ʻole IR3535. E mālama pono i nā pale puka a me nā puka makani i ke kūlana maikaʻi a paʻa i mea e pale aku ai i ke komo ʻana o nā pepeke.
