They must also actively continue participating in preventing mosquito bites by using abate powder larvicide in their home water containers, maintain mosquito larvae fishes, planting mosquito repellent plants, adjust the house's light and ventilation, and get used to folding hanging clothes.
One of students, Muhammad Fauzan (10), admitted that he would run the directives in his house.
"After going home, I will immediately check the bucket and bathtub, and ask my mother to buy abate," he told.
