The Role of Disinsection and Deratization in the Framework of Non-Specific Prophylaxis of Diseases among the Population in Natural Plague Foci in the Territory of the CIS Countries
Natural foci of plague – a particularly dangerous transmissible zoonotic disease – are widely spread across the world, including in the territory of Russia and a number of neighboring countries in Central Asia. Between 2000 and 2019, 28339 cases of plague were registered in 21 states around the worl...

| description | Natural foci of plague – a particularly dangerous transmissible zoonotic disease – are widely spread across the world, including in the territory of Russia and a number of neighboring countries in Central Asia. Between 2000 and 2019, 28339 cases of plague were registered in 21 states around the world; lethality rates reached 8 %. Active plague manifestations are associated with the increase in the abundance of carriers and vectors of the disease, which increases the risk of human infection. Prophylactic measures against plague are aimed at prevention and eradication of epidemic foci; they incorporate a whole complex (system) of activities. Disinsection and deratization remain the most radical of them. Control of the numbers of carriers and vectors of plague involves decrement up to the levels at which epizooties will not develop, they are suppressed and liquidated. Currently in the Russian Federation and CIS countries, the focus is on the field and community disinsection when planning and performing exterminatory interventions. The decrease in the numbers of fleas – carriers and vectors of plague microbe – results in disruption of epizootic process and, consequently, in provision of epidemiological welfare as regards this dangerous disease. Insecticide treatments in natural biotopes are carried out using powder-like or aerosolized products, the class of pyrethroids, organophosphorous compounds and phenylpyrazoles by means of advanced equipment: knapsack dusters, power operated air blowers, and foggers. Within the boundaries of residential areas wet disinsection is performed with the help of spraying devices. Field deratization is allowed upon epidemiological grounds only, in localized territories of epizooties, within the boundaries of the settlements of plague infected carriers. Zinc phosphide- or anticoagulant-based bait products are used as rodenticides. Therewith, the eradication of valuable animal species, rare species of small mammals and endemic species is prohibited. Community deratization is always accompanied by the community disinsection. When planning and carrying out insecticide and rodenticide treatments the priority is given to the safety of handling the chemical preparations, to the exclusion of the negative effect on target animal species. |
