KARACHI, Sept 25: The city government has finalised a fresh round of extensive fumigation against dengue.

DCO Mohammad Hussain Syed said on Sunday that special teams had been formed to carry out fumigation in all 18 towns of the metropolis with special focus on slums and rural areas.

Leaflets containing information about preventive measures and treatment of dengue would also be distributed, he added.

In the first round, dozens of spray machine-mounted vehicles carried out fumigation against dengue in the city twice a day.—PPI
