Insecticide-Treated Nets Can Reduce Malaria Transmission by Mosquitoes Which Feed Outdoors
Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) represent a powerful means for controlling malaria in Africa because the mosquito vectors feed primarily indoors at night. The proportion of human exposure that occurs indoors, when people are asleep and can conveniently use ITNs, is therefore very high. Recent eviden...
