First, ignorant people don't cooperate, and seemly trying to make them non-ignorant (ie: teach them), don't work, some people just refuse to learn even when you shove information in their head.
Then any slight mishap that break the systematic killing of mosquitos, allow them to come back in full force, for example in São Paulo a contract problem led the government mosquito killers to be carless for some months, meaning they could not get fast around to kill nests, in this year the mosquito population exploded, undoing several years of work.

- Fomite 11y agoThey don't have "nests" but there are prime breeding sites, like the inside of old tires, that are essentially "Mosquito Population Boom Ground Zero".
- rmellow 11y agoClarifying speeder's comment on "ignorant people": Mosquito larvae grow on still water, such as rain water accumulated in old tires, vases and debris.
