Introduction
Lesson Number 1
Getting to know all the participants in the course is vital for the remaining lessons. All the locals will be very keen to get to know you, but will be probably too embarrassed to ask. For many of them, this will be their first communication with a foreigner.

Night Time Mosquitoes
Lesson Number 3
People usually get malaria by being bitten by an infective female Anopheles mosquito. Most Anopheles mosquitoes are either active at dusk or dawn; or nocturnal. Some Anopheles mosquitoes feed indoors while others feed outdoors. Biting by nocturnal, Anopheles mosquitoes can be markedly reduced through the use of mosquito net.

Mosquitoes like Still Water
Lesson Number 4
Mosquitoes lay up to 250 eggs at a time in still water, which will hatch in 7 to 10 days. If standing water is eliminated weekly, many mosquitoes will be kept from breeding in the first place, eliminating the need to use pesticides against adult mosquitoes. This also reduces the number of mosquitoes around the house.
