Mosquitoes are a common nuisance in Eritrea, Ghinda, particularly during the rainy season when stagnant water provides ideal breeding grounds for these pesky insects. The presence of mosquitoes poses a significant threat to public health as they are vectors for various diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and chikungunya.

Malaria is the most prevalent mosquito-borne disease in Eritrea, Ghinda, with Anopheles mosquitoes being the primary vector. The Eritrean government has implemented various control measures such as insecticide-treated bed nets, indoor residual spraying, and larval control to combat the spread of malaria and other mosquito-borne illnesses.

Despite these efforts, mosquito-borne diseases continue to be a major public health concern in Eritrea, Ghinda. The lack of adequate healthcare infrastructure and resources further exacerbates the impact of these illnesses on the local population, highlighting the need for continued investment in disease prevention and control efforts.
