The Pest Situation in Manipur
Manipur's combination of high humidity, traditional bamboo construction, and proximity to Loktak Lake creates a persistent pest environment. Mosquito activity around the lake is year-round. Bamboo structures face the same termite vulnerability found throughout the Northeast. Rodents are active in both urban and peri-urban areas. PCPI's Northeast team covers Manipur with protocols developed for this specific combination of environment and structure type.
