Abstract:

Insecticide treated nets are critical tools for prevention of malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases. They have also been demonstrated to prevent nuisance and infective bites from a few other insects. Recently, there has been an increased push by the international community to eliminate malaria and therefore resources have been channelled into higher production and supply of ITNs to endemic areas, thus increasing their presence in the environment. The trend is unlikely to change given that ITNS are still strongly recommended by WHO as part of the methods with which significant reduction in

Abstract:

Malaria prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa remains high. Kenya for example, records about 3.5 million new cases and 11 thousand deaths each year.1 Most of these cases and deaths are among children under five. The main control method in malaria endemic regions has been through the use of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs). Although this approach has been fairly successful, the gains are threatened by mosquito-resistance to pyrethroids (insecticides on nets), physical and chemical degradation of ITNs that reduce their efficacy, inconsistent and improper use by humans, etc. We present a model to inves

Abstract:

Recent campaigns to increase the percentage of households owning a bed net have been very successful yet there remains a subset of the population who do not sleep under bed nets. We used data from the 2008 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey (KDHS) to compare children under the age of five years of age who slept under any bed net to children sleeping without a bed net who resided in households with: i) no bed net; ii) all bed nets used (intra-household access); and iii) at least one unused bed net. Ownership, intra-household access, and non-use of available bed nets were all associated with th

Abstract:

Background: Pregnant women, children and immune-compromised persons are highly vulnerable to malaria morbidity and mortality. Malaria accounts for about 50% of all clinic attendance in Nigeria and contributes significantly to anaemia in pregnancy, low birth weight, preterm births, still births and perinatal mortality. It is therefore imperative that these highly susceptible groups of people are adequately informed and supported for prevention of malaria at all times. This study assessed the knowledge and practice of malaria control measures among Antenatal Care attendees in Abakaliki. Me

Abstract:

Background: Malaria is the protozoan disease caused by the parasite of genus plasmodium. As per the World Health Organization Global Malaria Program, the primary intervention for effective malaria control is distribution of insecticide-treated nets, more specifically long-lasting insecticidal net, to achieve full coverage of populations at risk of malaria. The aim of the study was to identify associated factors with use of long-lasting insecticidal net in Kailali district.Methods: A community based quantitative cross-sectional study was carried out in 5 village development committees of Kailal

Abstract:

Background: Malaria causes an overwhelmingly large number of cases and deaths round the globe every year. Insecticide treated mosquito nets (ITNs) have raised a renewed interest to serve as tools for malaria control in Africa. This survey was, therefore, designed to provide information about the knowledge, attitude and experience of the community about malaria as a disease and its preventive methods, particularly acceptability, affordability and compliance to the use of insecticide treated mosquito nets, and factors influencing its possession and utilization of ITNs among Gyadi-Gyadi communiti

Abstract:

We studied the effect on malaria incidence, mosquito abundance, net efficacy, net use rate, chemical analysis, and holes of a long lasting insecticide treated bed net (Netprotect) in western Kenya, 2007–2010. Nets were hung in 150 households 6 months before they were hung in a second, 2 km away. Indoor resting densities were monitored by pyrethrum spray catch and malaria cases by passive detection using clinical manifestations and rapid diagnostic test. The probability of findingAn. arabiensisin the control area was 2.6 times higher than that in intervention area during the first 6 months. Hum

Abstract:

Abstract Management of direct apple pests, such as codling moth, continues to be problematic despite the widespread implementation of behavioral and chemical controls. Apple growers have increased their use of netting to protect fruit from environmental injury, with some structures enclosing the entire orchard. These enclosures represent a new pest management tactic through physical exclusion. We conducted a two-year trial to examine the effects of full exclusion netting on pests and natural enemies of apples. Insect densities and damage in trees under fully enclosed (net) cages were compared

Abstract:

Insecticide Treated Nets (ITNs) utilization possessed a great public health benefit, especially among the community with never ending malaria pandemic. Sustenance of ITNs practice in malaria endemic areas has a negative impact on the success and sustainability of its use as malaria prevention option. Indeed, ITNs reduced malaria related morbidity and mortality among children, if sustain. The study assessed the used of ITNs, as a means of malaria prevention, by exploring the level of awareness, knowledge and challenges confronting the utilization, focusing on children under the age of five, in

Currently the fall army worm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a new pest to the Sub-Saharan region and the outbreaks over the past two years have been devastating. A promising novel technology is the combination of a pheromone lure from ChemTica Internacional S.A. and yellow long-lasting insecticide treated ZeroFly Screen from Vestergaard SA.

Abstract:

Background Residual malaria transmissions in Africa may be associated with improved coverage of insecticide-treated nets, house features, and livestock husbandry. These human-land use activities may drive the ecology and behaviour of malaria vectors which sustain residual malaria transmission. This study was conducted to assess changes in the ecology and behaviour of Anopheles funestus and Anopheles arabiensis in villages with high coverage of insecticide-treated nets to guide the selection of complementary vector control strategies against residual malaria transmission.
