Summary

[edit]
Description

In Africa, malaria-carrying mosquitoes typically bite between dusk and dawn. A bed net hung over the sleeping area prevents mosquitoes from biting individuals sleeping under it. When that net is treated with insecticide, it provides greater protection by repelling mosquitoes and killing those that land on it.
