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'.

9 regions, Zambia  

Nets: 133,350 LLINs
When: Sep-Dec 09
Distributed by  World Vision    World Vision


133,350 nets will be distributed in 150 villages in 9 areas across Zambia to supplement those distributed in a recent campaign and to achieve universal coverage of all sleeping spaces in the villages.

Universal coverage has a significant impact on the local malaria-carrying mosquito population by starving them of a blood meal.
