Combining insecticide treated bed nets and indoor residual spraying for malaria vector control in Africa

2012-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Background: Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) are the preferred techniques for malaria vector control in Africa, where their application has already contributed to significant reductions in the burden of the disease. Even though both methods are commonly used together in the same households, evidence of greater health benefits due to these combinations as opposed to use of either I...
