Residents in the neighbourhoods surrounding Bedok Reservoir Park complained of green flies which swarm the area. The green flies, according to the National Environment Agency, are midges, a type of bug that resembles the mosquito, but do not bite or carry diseases. To control the midge infestation, the area was sprayed with safe pesticide.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
