Wolbachia-Aedes Mosquito Suppression Strategy​

Project Wolbachia Update 13 October 2021: Small-scale test releases will be conducted along Duku Road and Jalan Baiduri as part of the Project Wolbachia field studies at landed estates in Marine Parade. Click here for more information.

Using male Wolbachia-carrying Aedes aegypti (Wolbachia-Aedes) mosquitoes to reduce the dengue mosquito population
NEA’s Environmental Health Institute has studied various novel mosquito control methods, and has found that the Wolbachia-Aedes suppression technology is most suitable for Singapore’s context. NEA’s Dengue Expert Advisory Panel (DEAP), comprising experts from Singapore, Australia, the UK, and the US, has also recommended that Singapore explore the use of the Wolbachia-Aedes suppression technology to further reduce the risk of dengue.
Releases of male Wolbachia-Aedes mosquitoes have reduced Aedes aegypti mosquito populations at study sites in Yishun and Tampines, Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Batok towns by up to 98 per cent. Correspondingly, the core areas of the study sites with at least one year of releases saw up to 88 per cent fewer dengue cases, compared to areas without releases.
