Distributed by PSI

Population Services International (PSI) is a not-for-profit organization which has been delivering products and services to improve health and save lives in the fields of malaria and other public health priority areas since the 1970's. Today, PSI is supporting Ministries of Health in 70 countries across the world.

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'.

Mahottari is one of the highest risk malaria districts in the country. There is no existing LLIN use in the area. Five villages will be targeted: Ramnagar, Laxminia, Hathilet, Kisannagar and Bardibas.

The nets will be distributed to target households in collaboration with local community based organisations. The distribution will be coupled with comprehensive Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) activities in support of consistent net usage and the need to seek prompt care if malaria is suspected.
