• Remove water in plant pot plates. Clean and scrub the plate thoroughly to remove mosquito eggs. Avoid the use of plant pot plates, if possible.

• Loosen soil from potted plants to prevent the accumulation of stagnant water on the surface of the hardened soil.

• Do not block the flow of water in scupper drains along common corridors in HDB estates. Avoid placing potted plants and other paraphernalia over the scupper drains.

• Cover rarely used gully traps. Replace the gully trap with non-perforated ones and install anti-mosquito valves.

• Change water in flower vases.

• Clean and scrub the inner sides of vases.
