Chennai Corporation to spray larvicide in water bodies using drones
By MYBRANDBOOK
The Greater Chennai Corporation deployed drones to spray anti-larval chemicals or insecticides in the water bodies to control mosquito breeding. These chemicals are reportedly sprayed to kill culex mosquitoes, which are bred in the sewage mixed waterways.
Gagandeep Singh Bedi, Chennai Corporation Commissioner, said that the 15 days of anti-larvae chemical spray project started by the Chennai Corporation has engaged two drones to spray approximately 400 litres mosquito larvicide in the water bodies of Chennai every day.
Drones are being used to spray insecticides in areas that are inaccessible by the workers. The drones had been deployed at a cost of Rs 10 Lakh to spray in 30 minor and four major canals. Three drones covered 60 kilometres every day for the span of 15 days.
Besides Chennai Corporation, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) and Mumbai's BMC has also earlier used drones to spray anti-larval chemicals in order to prevent mosquito breeding.
