In an innovative move to enhance public health and safety, the Sharjah City Municipality has introduced 90 advanced smart traps designed to detect and mitigate mosquito infestations across the city.
Solar-Powered Technology and Monitoring
These cutting-edge traps operate on solar energy 24/7, ensuring sustainable and consistent functionality. Equipped with a satellite monitoring system, the traps allow municipal teams to receive real-time updates on mosquito spread. Upon detecting high infestation levels, specialized teams are dispatched to the affected areas to address the issue promptly.
Targeted Locations
The traps have been strategically installed in residential neighborhoods, public parks, and other high-traffic areas to minimize the risk of mosquito-borne diseases.
Advanced Pest Control Measures
Jamal Al Mazmi, Director of the Health Control and Safety Department, emphasized the use of state-of-the-art equipment, including fogging machines and ultra-fine mist sprayers, to support pest control operations. These efforts align with Sharjah’s commitment to maintaining a healthy and safe environment for its residents and visitors.
Sharjah’s initiative highlights the city’s dedication to leveraging technology for public welfare, ensuring a proactive approach to combating health hazards.
