In Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, a report on the detection of larvae was received, and related organizations began to investigate.

Resident A, who lives in an apartment in Unjeong New Town in Paju, discovered a moving larva while using a sink at 4:30 pm today (19th), and immediately managed it by judging that it was similar to that found in tap water in Incheon and some parts of Gyeonggi. We reported to offices.

Related organizations, such as Paju City and Korea Water Resources Corporation, are conducting investigations by sending employees to the apartments.

It has been reported that, to date, there have been no additional similarities reported in this apartment.

An official from Paju-si explained, "It is necessary to investigate further whether it came from a water purification plant like a midget larva found in Incheon."
