The Pest Situation in Assam
Assam's annual flooding creates one of India's most intense post-event pest environments. When floodwater recedes, it leaves behind breeding grounds that generate mosquito populations at scale. Rodents displaced from fields move into homes. Cockroach colonies expand in flood-damaged structures. PCPI has a post-monsoon rapid deployment protocol specifically built for Assam's flooding cycle.
