In Los Mochis, Sinaloa, the Ahome Municipal Health Directorate implemented a weekly fumigation schedule targeting the Aedes Aegypti mosquito. This campaign includes rotating neighborhood visits and emphasizes ‘descacharrización’—the removal of standing water and debris—following a year with approximately 200 recorded dengue cases. Similarly, in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, municipal and health authorities are conducting nebulization campaigns across several neighborhoods. These efforts are paired with permanent programs to remove discarded objects that collect water.
