Impact of increased ventilation on indoor temperature and malaria mosquito density: an experimental study in The Gambia
In sub-Saharan Africa, cooler houses would increase the coverage of insecticide-treated bednets, the primary malaria control tool. We examined whether improved ventilation, using windows screened with netting, cools houses at night and reduces malaria mosquito house entry in The Gambia. Identical ho...
