Mosquito Vs Mosquito


QuintoAndar, with a portfolio of over 100k houses, is the largest digital real estate agency in Latin America.




Every 80 seconds, one person dies from Dengue. Dengue is a viral disease transmitted by the Aedes Aegypti mosquito. The cases of this disease in Brazil never stop growing. The problem is that 80% of the breeding sites for the Aedes Aegypti mosquito are inside houses, making it very hard to control.

To fight Dengue, QuintoAndar, the largest digital real estate agency in Latin America, has teamed up with Oxitec, a global leader in biotechnology, to spread an innovative technology against the mosquito. We have created the project Mosquito vs Mosquito, which is a box with never-seen-before technology. Inside each box, there are male mosquitoes genetically modified to fight Aedes Aegypti. The male mosquito doesn't bite or transmit diseases, and when it breeds, it only generates harmless mosquitoes like itself, significantly reducing disease transmission.

We have taken the boxes to our clients, turning our network of houses into a huge mosquito protection network.
