We, the residents of Maple 1 in Dubai Hills, are compelled to address an ongoing mosquito infestation that has now reached critical levels, especially following the recent rainstorm. This issue has persisted for several months, with the green belts and other common areas accumulating stagnant water, thereby creating perfect breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
The current situation poses serious health risks, particularly to children, as mosquitoes are known carriers of diseases. The previous measures, such as periodic fumigation, have proven to be insufficient in mitigating this escalating problem. Furthermore, the lack of immediate actions like water siphoning post-storm reflects a concerning level of complacency regarding this public health threat.
Given the severity and duration of this issue, we urgently request a comprehensive and effective action plan that includes:
1. Immediate removal of all stagnant water to prevent further mosquito breeding.
2. Enhanced and continuous fumigation with effective treatments.
3. A proactive long-term strategy for water management and mosquito control, including regular maintenance and community inspections.
The well-being of Maple 1 residents should be a priority, and we trust that Emaar will undertake prompt and effective measures to address this long-standing issue. We look forward to your immediate response and a detailed action plan.
Seeing the count climb this quickly confirms I am not the only one exhausted by this neglect. It has been a long road but this surge of support shows that we are finally being heard.

Visitors were badly bitten this year in February and March and now my Son and myself are covered in bites. We haven't been able to enjoy the garden as much this winter. Every time we open the front door, a cloud of mosquitos are trying to get in the house.

The stagnant water not only poses a health risk but a safety risk. A child was riding her bicycle on the cycle path behind Villa 136 and continued to ride into the water. This could have been catastrophic if she was not seen and fatal.

The irrigation water is also very smelly, and need to be tested for contamination
