Monsoon · June – September
Aedes aegypti — the dengue mosquito — needs 7–10 days from egg to biting adult. That means the moment monsoon rain fills discarded coconut shells, flower pot saucers, terrace puddles and neighbourhood plastic waste, a 24-day countdown starts to peak breeding. Book fogging within 3–5 days of the first heavy rain.
Fogging kills adults on contact but eggs already laid hatch 3–7 days later. That is why one fogging is not enough — the follow-up in 4–6 weeks catches the new adult generation from those eggs.

A cheap fogging is 10 minutes of misting the rooms and leaving. A proper monsoon fogging is 30–45 minutes and covers indoor + outdoor + drains + water outlets.
Fogging alone lasts 45 days. These five daily/weekly habits prevent breeding in the interim.
