LLINs

What is a Long-Lasting Insecticidal Net (LLIN)?

An LLIN is a mosquito net impregnated with insecticide.

The insecticide is cleverly bound within the fibres that make up the netting and is 'slow released' over a 4-5 year period. Hence 'long lasting'.

Pre-distribution information

Danyi N'Digbe is a small village near the town of Kpalimé in Southern Togo and is in a malarious area. The people live in extremely poor conditions without any protection from malaria.

500 nets will be distributed in the village to achieve blanket coverage. There are 250 households and each will receive two nets.

Post-distribution information

The distribution was completed successfully as planned.

A post-distribution report will be added here shortly.

Follow-up surveys

These take place 6, 18, 30 and 42 months post-distribution. A survey of 50 households provides sample information on what proportion of nets continue to be used, if they are used correctly and the state of the nets.
