The website of Ea Kao ward (Dak Lak province) reported on 4 October 2026 that, as dengue was becoming more complicated, the ward People’s Committee was carrying out wide-area spraying against adult mosquitoes in high-risk areas. From the start of the year to 30 September 2026 the ward recorded 416 cases, 227 of them in September.
Main points
- Cases were concentrated in Cu Ebong, Hwie, Kao and Tong Ju villages, Residential Groups 1 and 2, M’Duk village and Cao Thang Residential Group.
- Spraying schedule by area: 6 and 13 October – Cao Thang Residential Group and Tong Ju village; 7 and 14 October – Cu Ebong village and Residential Group 2; 8 and 15 October – Hwie and Kao villages; 9 and 16 October – Residential Group 1 and M’Duk village. Spraying times follow technical guidance and mosquito activity; the schedule may change with the outbreak situation, the weather and technical needs.
- Residents are asked to open their doors when health workers spray, cover food, drinking water and household items carefully, and move people, children and pets out of the spraying area as instructed by health staff.
- The ward stresses that spraying is only a supplementary measure and does not replace larval control; every household should check and clean water containers, remove mosquito breeding sites every week and report cases or high-risk spots to the health station.

This local government notice shows how spraying is scheduled area by area, repeated after one week, with safety requirements for households.
