The civic body is taking all chances to check spread of malaria. On Wednesday, it sent samples of mosquito larvicidal (ML) oil it had stopped using since almost two years for testing to Haffkine Institute in Parel. If the report suggests that the oil is effective in destroying mosquito larvae, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation will shell out Rs1.62 crore to procure it.
