Residents are calling on the city council to resume parasite control in residential areas as residential areas are becoming infested with rodents, mosquitoes and other insects. Residents also emphasised the need for the city council to spray water logged areas to prevent the breeding of mosquitoes and other parasites that have the potential of bringing diseases. Residents also raised the issue of unclean drainages that harbour insects and parasites affecting the wellbeing of residents. While the city council has previously said it has inadequate funding to undergo normal spraying exercises, BPRA believes that the city council should fulfil its mandate of ensuring a healthy environment in Bulawayo. The city council is thus urged to resume pest control and clean out drainages.
