Vector-borne diseases, including dengue, malaria, and chikungunya, remain major public health challenges in tropical regions. This cross-sectional study assessed knowledge, attitudes, and preventive practices (KAP) among 1,000 urban residents. Structured questionnaires measured awareness of disease transmission, protective behaviors, and community engagement. Findings revealed that 65% of participants were aware of vector-borne diseases, but only 48% practiced regular preventive measures such as eliminating stagnant water and using mosquito nets. Higher education levels, exposure to media campaigns, and prior community participation were associated with improved preventive practices (p<0.05). The study highlights the importance of sustained community-based health education and vector control strategies to reduce disease transmission.
