Wehewehe pōkole: • ʻO kēia makahiki ka manawa mua i hoʻokō ʻia ai nā kulu larvicide ea maʻamau ma ka ʻāpana. • ʻO ka pahuhopu ke kōkua i ka hoʻōki ʻana i ka laha ʻana o nā maʻi hiki mai e nā makika. • Mai ka makahiki 2017, ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o 3 mau kānaka i hoʻāʻo maikaʻi ʻia i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Hoʻolālā ʻo San Diego County e hana i nā kulu larvicide ea mua maʻamau ma 52 mau kahawai kūloko i kēia makahiki e pale aku i nā makika mai ka hoʻolaha ʻana i nā maʻi e like me ka maʻi West Nile.
Ua ʻōlelo nā luna o ke kalana e hāʻule nā helikopternā lāʻau pepehi pepekeinā pono i ka Pōʻakolu a me ka Pōʻahā e uhi i kahi kokoke i 1,400 ʻeka o nā wahi hoʻoulu makika hiki ʻole ke hiki aku.
Ma hope o ka puka ʻana mai o ka maʻi West Nile i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā makahiki 2000, ua hoʻomaka ke kalana e hoʻohana i nā helikopter e hoʻokuʻu i ka larvicide granular paʻa i nā wahi paʻakikī e hiki ai i ka wai kū i loko o nā muliwai, nā kahawai, nā loko a me nā kino wai ʻē aʻe kahi e hiki ai i nā makika ke hānau. Hoʻokele ke kalana i nā hoʻokuʻu larvicide lewa ma kahi o hoʻokahi manawa i ka mahina mai ʻApelila a ʻOkakopa.
ʻAʻole e hōʻeha ka larvicide i nā kānaka a me nā holoholona, akā e pepehi i nā ʻenuhe makika ma mua o ko lākou lilo ʻana i mau makika nahu.
ʻO ka maʻi West Nile kahi maʻi nui o nā manu. Eia nō naʻe, hiki i nā makika ke hoʻoili i ka maʻi make i nā kānaka ma ka hānai ʻana i nā manu i loaʻa i ka maʻi a laila nahu i nā kānaka.
Ua emi iki ka hopena o ka maʻi West Nile ma ke Kalana ʻo San Diego i nā makahiki i hala iho nei. Mai ka makahiki 2017, ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻekolu mau kānaka i hoʻāʻo maikaʻi ʻia i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Akā he mea weliweli nō ia a pono e pale aku nā kānaka i nā makika.
ʻO nā kulu larvicidal he ʻāpana wale nō ia o kahi hoʻolālā kaohi vector piha. Nānā pū nā keʻena kaohi vector o ke kalana ma kahi o 1,600 mau wahi hoʻoulu makika i kēlā me kēia makahiki a hoʻopili i nā larvicides me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻano hana like ʻole (aerial, 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 ka maʻi West Nile, a nānā i nā heluna makika no nā maʻi hiki ke lawe ʻia e ka makika.
Ke hoʻomanaʻo nei nā luna kaohi vector o ke kalana i nā kānaka e pale iā lākou iho mai nā makika i loko a puni ko lākou mau home ma ka ʻimi ʻana a me ka hoʻokahe ʻana i ka wai kū e pale ai i ka hoʻoulu ʻana o nā mea ʻino.
Pono nā hana pale ʻana i nā makika i ke kōkua lehulehu i nā makahiki i hala iho nei i ka wā i hoʻokumu ʻia ai kekahi mau ʻano makika Aedes hou ma ʻaneʻi. ʻO kekahi o kēia mau makika, inā loaʻa iā lākou ka maʻi ma ka nahu ʻana i kahi kanaka maʻi a laila hānai i nā mea ʻē aʻe, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻolaha i nā maʻi i loaʻa ʻole ma ʻaneʻi, me Zika, ka maʻi dengue a me ka chikungunya. Makemake nā makika Aedes komo e noho a hoʻoulu a puni nā home a me nā pā hale o ka poʻe.
Ua ʻōlelo nā luna kaohi vector o ke kalana ʻo ke ala maikaʻi loa no ka poʻe e pale ai iā lākou iho mai nā makika, ʻo ia ka hahai ʻana i nā kulekele "Pale, Mālama, Hōʻike".
E hoʻolei a wehe paha i nā mea i loko a i waho paha o kou home e paʻa ai ka wai, e like me nā ipu pua, nā ʻauwai, nā bākeke, nā ʻōpala, nā mea pāʻani, nā kaila kahiko a me nā huila. Loaʻa manuahi nā iʻa makika ma o kahi papahana kaohi vector a hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia e kaohi i ka hoʻoulu ʻana o nā makika ma nā kumu wai kū i loko o nā māla home e like me nā loko ʻauʻau i mālama ʻole ʻia, nā loko, nā pūnāwai a me nā ʻauwaʻa lio.
E pale iā ʻoe iho mai nā maʻi i lawe ʻia e nā makika ma ke komo ʻana i nā lole lima lōʻihi a me nā lole komo a i ʻole ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka mea pale pepeke i ka wā ma waho. E hoʻohana i kahi mea pale pepeke i loaʻaDEET, picaridin, ʻaila o ka lemon eucalyptus, a i ʻole IR3535. E hōʻoia i ka maikaʻi o nā pale puka a me nā puka makani a paʻa hoʻi e pale aku i nā pepeke mai ke komo ʻana.
