Mosquitoes belong to the insect family Culicidae, with over 3,000 species known to exist throughout the world. They are blood-suckers and because of this habit, they may vector and transmit some of the most significant infectious disease of humans and animals alike including malaria, equine encephalitis, dog heartworm, filarial nematodes, e.t.c. mosquitoes can be found in a wide variety of habitats including stagnant water, swamps, weedy sides of streams, e.t.c. changes in the environment such as rainfall changes, agricultural changes, and human habitations can however afftect their distribution. The control of mosquitoes involves the use of Insecticides-treated (bed) nets (ITNs), predators such as mosquito fish, Gambusia, larvacides, Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS), use of mosquitos’ repellents, and the elimination of breeding sites. In order for the control strategies to be effective, studies on the biology and ecology of mosquitoes should be encouraged.

The chapter is about the mosquitoes and the diseases caused due to bredding of mosquitoes, It also deals with the preventive measures of mosquitoes.
This is a presentation on Dengue and prevention methods by the Directorate of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Government of Tamilnadu. Since the vector which transmits Dengue virus breeds in clean water collections in domestic and peridomestic areas, a concerted action with community involvement is of paramaount importance in control of Dengue. Understanding the life cycle of this vector, Aedes aegypti is the key to control of Dengue. This presentation depicts the sources of these dangerous mosquitoes which are pervaded among us. Identification of larvae in household water storage containers and destroying them is easier than adult control measures. This is an attempt to throw light on such breeding sources and how to prevent such breeding sources, thereby preventing Dengue infection.

In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Dengue fever is a virus infection caused by the dengue
virus. There are 4 kinds of dengue viruses.
Close-up of an Aedes mosquito
5. Do you know…
•Dengue fever and dengue haemorrhagic fever are the
most common mosquito-borne viral disease in the world.
•Only the female mosquito feeds on blood. This is
because they need the protein found in blood to produce
eggs. Male mosquitoes feed only on plant nectar.
•The mosquito is attracted by the body odours, carbon
dioxide and heat emitted from the animal or humans.
•The female Aedes mosquito searches for suitable places to
lay their eggs.
•Aedes are day-biters, most active during dawn and
dusk.
