The intensive summer pest control involves weekly thorough pest control activities by 17 pest control workers in each village, targeting mosquito larvae and adults in vulnerable areas of each eup and myeon, as well as water puddles and sewers in beach opening areas, to prevent pest-borne infectious diseases.


The inauguration ceremony and training included education on the use and precautions of pest control agents and equipment, pest control information geographic systems, and traffic safety education provided by Uljin Police Station (Chief Kang Myeong-won). This traffic safety education deeply resonated with the pest control workers, most of whom are motorcycle or elderly drivers.



Nam Hwa-mo, Director of the Health Center, urged the participants to pay close attention to meticulous pest control and individual safety and health management during the summer to ensure a safe Uljin free from pest-borne diseases.
