The people from the community were glad that such project arrived in their barangay. At first, some refused to be served because of the fear that they might pay for the service. The anti-dengue operation is a free spraying project and households served were also given free OFF MOSQUITO LOTION and anti-mosquito coils. The team reached its target to spray 350 households and the project ended with a Film Showing wherein it shows the history of the dengue virus and education on how to prevent it.
