Educating communities on mosquito-borne diseases
To create a better, healthier world, we need to take global action and make a difference on the ground in local communities.
We’re harnessing the power of local educational efforts and partnerships to help families protect themselves from mosquito-borne diseases.
Protection beyond products
Fighting mosquito-borne diseases with education
As part of our efforts toward helping families take action to protect themselves from mosquito-borne diseases, we equip them with vital resources.
Our disease prevention efforts include working hard to educate families about how to avoid insects that may carry diseases — especially those like malaria and dengue that are transmitted by female Aedes mosquitoes.
Education in action
Partnerships and initiatives that build awareness
How do we spread vital knowledge about mosquito-borne diseases? Through collaborations with local government, sharing information in-store, product sampling and more.
Sponsored by SC Johnson brands including Raid®, Autan®, OFF!® and Baygon®, these programs take place in locations around the world making a difference as an important way to build awareness about the possible transmission of mosquito-borne diseases.
