Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This Scientific Memoir describes the second year of an experiment to demonstrate the reduction of malaria in a cantonment by various anti-mosquito measures. The aim of the operations outlined in this volume was to combat the species of mosquito thought to be the most likely transmitter of malaria in the area, Anopheles culicifacies Giles. At the time of the study, these kinds of mosquito were thought to breed in sluggish canals and pools formed by rain. The author, Lt. S.R. Christophers, delivers an engaging and detailed account of a range of methods undertaken to reduce numbers of the pest, including cleaning the canals, elimination of pools, and treating breeding grounds with oil. The study yielded significant insights into the habits of mosquitoes and the efficacy of different control measures, forming part of a movement towards understanding and combating malaria that continues to inform public health today.
