The campaign employs advanced tools and equipment to tackle various pest issues. Among the technologies being used are digital traps, fogging machines, and ultra-fine mist sprayers, which are particularly effective against flying insects.

This sophisticated approach is part of a broader strategy to improve urban sanitation and reduce the health risks associated with pests.

Municipality workers have been observed actively engaging in the campaign, focusing on several key areas.

Large bins throughout the city are being thoroughly sprayed with pesticides, and sewer systems are being opened and treated to eliminate potential breeding grounds for pests.

In addition to these efforts, experts are collecting samples from various locations and removing stagnant water, which is known to be a prime breeding ground for mosquitoes and other insects.

The campaign also emphasizes the importance of monitoring and inspection to ensure that pest management measures are effective.
