Kochi Corporation’s health standing committee to consider two proposals to use drones for mosquito control

Kochi Corporation's health standing committee is set to review two innovative proposals aimed at enhancing mosquito control through drone technology. One start-up suggests using drones for spraying larvicides, while another company aims to deploy drones to distribute an organic compound at mosquito-breeding sites identified via GIS mapping. This initiative is significant as it represents a modern approach to public health and pest control, potentially reducing mosquito-borne diseases in urban areas.
