The Mosquito-Tigre is now well installed in Burgundy-Franche-Comté. Easily recognizable by its black and white stripes, this mosquito, active mainly between May and November, can transmit viruses like dengue, chikungunya or zika. It represents a public health issue.
Faced with this situation, the local health contract of the Beaune country, in partnership with the City of Beaune, the Regional Health Agency (ARS) and the Association Promotion Health, is organizing a public information meeting open to all, Monday June 30 at 6:30 p.m. at the Palais des Congrès, at 19, avenue Charles-de-Gaulle in Beaune.
The opportunity to benefit from concrete advice
The aim of this meeting is to better understand the risks linked to the proliferation of mosquito-tiger, to learn to identify it, and above all to know the simple and effective gestures to limit its development, in particular by removing stagnant waters around home.
One of the main prevention levers is to eliminate stagnant water points in the gardens, on balconies or in exterior equipment (pots, saucers, non-covered water recuperators, etc.), privileged laying places for mosquito. This meeting will be an opportunity to ask your questions and benefit from concrete advice.
