Cyclops is one of the most common genera of freshwater copepods, comprising over 400 species.[1][2] Together with other similar-sized non-copepod fresh-water crustaceans, especially cladocera, they are commonly called water fleas. The name Cyclops comes from the Cyclops of Greek mythology, as water fleas have a single large eye; in Cyclops, the eye may be either red or black.

Control methods[edit]
Cyclops can be controlled using physical, chemical, biological and engineering methods.
Physical[edit]
Straining of water through piece of fine cloth is sufficient to remove Cyclops. It can also be killed by boiling water, as it is easily killed by heat at 60 °C.
Chemical[edit]
Chlorine destroys Cyclops in strength of 22 ppm in 2 hours;[4] although this concentration of chlorine gives bad odour and taste to water. Excess chlorine can be removed with Sodium thiosulfate. Calcium hydroxide at dosage of 4 gram per gallon of water can be used. Temefos kills cyclops at concentration of 1 mg/litre.
Biological[edit]
Small fish like barbel and Gambusia feed on Cyclops. This type of predation was used in Indian state of Karnataka to eradicate dracunculiasis.[5]
Engineering[edit]
Provision of drinking water through piping water supply, use of tubewells and abolition of stepwells are effective measures on community level.[6]
