Tiger mosquitoes are vectors of dengue fever.

A vast mosquito control operation will take place overnight from Thursday to Friday in several municipalities of Lot-et-Garonne after the confirmation of two new cases of dengue in recent days.

This is a couple who recently stayed overseas and then near Agen.

An investigation has demonstrated the presence of the tiger mosquito in the vicinity.

The health authorities will therefore carry out a mosquito control operation in the neighborhood of the couple's place of residence and the places they frequented in Villeneuve-sur-Lot, Roquefort, Sainte Colombe en Bruilhois, Sainte Livrade sur Lot and Pinel Hauterive, reports
