Shieldtox Supports the Ministry of Health to Protect Malaysians From Diseases Related to Harmful Pests

Earlier this month, Shieldtox joined the Ministry of Health at the launch of Madani Afiat State Programme to enhance public awareness about dengue, providing Malaysians with the education needed to prevent its spread. This cooperative initiative, which reflects Shieldtox's dedication to promoting pest-free surroundings and preserving public health, aims to provide Malaysians with the knowledge necessary to avert the rising infection and death rates.

Aedes mosquitoes are the principal vectors of dengue fever, which is still a serious health threat. Due to rising temperatures, floods, and the reopening of all sectors, which created an ideal climate for Aedes mosquito reproduction, Malaysia has seen an alarming 139% spike in dengue infections. In 2023, this trend is anticipated to continue and reach its apex.

Shieldtox has taken preemptive measures to reduce the impact of the dengue virus's rapid spread through significant educational activities and community outreach programmes. They have demonstrated their steadfast dedication to their aim of establishing pest-free settings that protect lives from the dangers of pest-borne diseases by actively participating in a national outreach drive. In addition, the business generously sponsors pesticides for areas with high dengue infection rates, which significantly aids in the fight against dengue. They want to entirely eliminate the harm that mosquito-borne illnesses represent to public health by leading this fight.

Tiffany Tang, the Marketing Director for Health Malaysia & Singapore at Reckitt Malaysia, passionately expressed, "Through our partnership with the Ministry of Health, we aim to heighten awareness regarding dengue prevention and foster a pest-free environment. Our commitment to combating dengue in Malaysia is unwavering, and this mission is a continuous endeavor. We call upon communities to unite with us and actively contribute to dengue prevention efforts while spreading awareness to safeguard your loved ones."

Shieldtox has a long history in the market and is able to effectively inform the public about the value of utilising pest-repellent products that work to keep the environment clean and habitable. Shieldtox organised neighbourhood clean-ups in 15 dengue-prone regions in Malaysia in 2018. Shieldtox's Fight Dengue Campaign also advanced educational efforts in conjunction with ASEAN Dengue Day by hosting unique roadshow events and health talks emphasising the significance of preventing dengue fever. Due to the country's implementation of the Movement Control Order in 2020/21, Shieldtox converted its slogan, "No Aedes, No Dengue," to a digital platform through a collaboration with TV3.

Dettol have also joined the fight against dengue fever

Renowned companies Dettol and Harpic have also joined the fight against dengue fever in addition to Shieldtox's initiatives. With its broad knowledge and products, Dettol, a company renowned for its hygiene and disinfection prowess, helped to inform the public about correct sanitation procedures and preserving a germ-free workplace. Dettol is making great progress in preserving public health and aiding in the fight against Dengue by emphasising the significance of maintaining clean, mosquito-free settings and offering practical hygiene solutions. Their passion to this cause is a reflection of their commitment to building a future where everyone is healthier and safer.

With its expertise in providing clean and sterile lavatory facilities, Harpic, a reputable name in toilet hygiene, made a significant contribution to the effort to stop the spread of disease-carrying mosquitoes. Together, these companies are devoted to eradicating dengue through education, promotion of hygienic practises, and awareness-raising in the never-ending quest for a more hygienic and healthier world.
