National Project Implementation Plan - NVBDCP

strategy will help economize insecticide consumption and also help reduce
environmental degradation through in discriminate spraying.
Selective IRS would be done when surveillance has been geared up and
geographic mapping with validation is made available. Until then IRS would
be undertaken on case reporting in the villages. Spraying will be done in
accordance with the national strategy.
IRS would be done at the most appropriate time twice a year. IRS is
expected to achieve maximum coverage and uniformly to have a lasting
impact. Community support will be taken for maximum coverage and its
quality.
With the help of expertise available in the state IRS will be supported by
entomological studies and vector monitoring to assess the efficacy of IRS.
Surveillance of P argentipes i.e. vector is important to determine the
distribution, population density, major habitats and spatial and temporal
risk factors related to Kala-azar transmission. Insecticide resistance
monitoring would be done on a regular basis.
6.1.3 2.c a) Insecticidal Residual Spray
Indoor DDT spraying in all cattle sheds and human dwellings up to 6 ft.
height from ground at the rate of 1 gm per sq. mt.) is proposed. Efforts will
be made to plan IRS, supervise IRS, organize BCC and ensure safe disposal
of the insecticide to minimize the risk from IRS. The activity schedule is
presented is Table– 3
