Every school is required to strengthen the Anti-Dengue Advocacy Campaign in order to eliminate the effect of dengue where victims are usually the children who hit by the illness. However, exposures and potential health risks to children and school staff can be reduced through awareness and prevention. The school can request stakeholders who will show a support in combating the dengue by spraying the surroundings and classrooms of the school. The school head and teachers can even ask the assistance of the RHU and other private sectors who are willing to devote their time to ensure the safety of the children.

        Moreover, the action of the staff cannot only prevent the spread of dengue but can also offer a best environment friendly solution for pest problems in school which is added primarily in the success of teaching.
