Malaria spread Malaria spread depends on:depends on:
•Rainfall patternRainfall pattern(How does this (How does this affect mosquito affect mosquito breeding?)breeding?)
•Types of mosquitoes in the areaTypes of mosquitoes in the area
•How close are people to the breeding How close are people to the breeding sites?sites?
Some areas constantly have a high rate Some areas constantly have a high rate of malaria.of malaria.
Other areas have “malaria seasons” or Other areas have “malaria seasons” or occasional epidemics of malaria.occasional epidemics of malaria.
Mosquitoes and MalariaMosquitoes and Malaria The spread of malaria The spread of malaria
depends on the life cycle depends on the life cycle of the mosquito.of the mosquito.
Adult mosquitoes lay Adult mosquitoes lay their eggs on water.their eggs on water.
The eggs hatch to The eggs hatch to become larvae and then become larvae and then pupae, before turning pupae, before turning into adults.into adults.
Adult females mosquitoes Adult females mosquitoes only live 2 to 4 weeks.only live 2 to 4 weeks.
So you can reduce So you can reduce malaria by attacking any malaria by attacking any of these four stages of of these four stages of the mosquito.the mosquito.
Where do mosquitoes Where do mosquitoes breed?breed?
