Going to the Limpopo province late May. What is the typical preventive for Malaria that the more experienced hunters here utilize, or treatment after. Is it necessary for a preventive. Our PH says there is not much concern in their location, it is more prevalent near Kruger, which is 3 hours east from them. Any help is appreciated. I have checked the CDC website, but do we need to be concerned..
 
Well I found my question in some other posts and the answers were similar to what I had expected. I should have searched before I posted.
 
Mefloquinine is now only partially effective, Larium can have serious side effects. Doxicycline as prophylactic or treatment best. Plus take care of long socks / pants at night and watch for holes in your mossy net !
 
Where in limpopo will you be hunting chances are that you most probably do not need any anti malaria, tablets....

Upon reply i can guarantee that you probably DON'T

MY BEST ALWAYS

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,
