How can we be talking of nets when we should be talking about environmental cleanliness. The nets might form part of the immediate solution, but not the solution to malaria. We need environmental education to help our people change their attitude towards the environment. We also need our institutions in charge of the environment as well as the MMDA's to supervise in bulding proper drainage systems to prevent breeding of mosquitoes. I see the issues of nets as business to those involved. I'm in europe now, and the eradication of malaria is not the result of the use of nets. The environment is the solution. For how long will the net protect us from mosquitos? Lets think...

THIS IS A VERY SHORT-SIGHTED SOLUTION TO THE LONG-TERM PROBLEM OF MALARIA SPREAD.
ONLY A FOOL LIKE THIS GUY WILL COME UP WITH SUCH A MYOPIC NONSENSE.

MOSQUITOES BREED IN STAGNANT WATER BODIES LIKE THE ODAW "RIVER", IN STAGNANT SURFACE WATER DRAINS, DISUSED CAR TYRES AND ANY OTHER CONTAINER THAT CAN HOLD STAGNANT WATER.
LONG-TERM ERADICATION OF MALARIA CALLS FOR A COMPLETE UNDERGROUND RELATIVELY COST-EFFECTIVE DRAINAGE SYSTEM INSTEAD OF THOSE FOOLISHLY PLANNED IMMOVEABLE CONCRETE SURFACE WATER DRAINS, PUBLIC HEALTH EDUCATION AND PLANNED CYCLICAL AERIAL SPRAYING WITH INSECTICIDES AS IS DONE IN EVEN THE RELATIVELY POOR CARRIBEAN AND OTHER FORWARD-PLANNING THIRD-WORLD COUNTRIES.

Grow up! you need to read in between lines to understand before you comment. I wonder who educated you to be insulting. People like you needs to be eradicated like the way we need to eradicate mosquitoes.

I found the title of the article so naive that I did not have time to read it. Is he telling us that mosquitoes only bite people in the night? We cannot cover ourselves with ITN nets the whole day. We are in bed only 8 or so hours everyday where nets can be used. What happens then for the rest of the day? This article does not make any sense at all.

THERE ARE NO ANOPHELES MOSQUITOES IN DEVELOPED WORLD BECAUSE OF HYGIENE. IF 75% OF THE CONTINENT IS CLEAN, THEN THERE WILL BE NO BREEDING GROUND FOR THE PARASITE. HAVING A NET AROUND FAMILIES IS NOT A SKIN PROTECTOR OR ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTION TO THE HYGIENE PROBLEM. SILLY STUDY AND WASTE OF MONEY ON A PROBLEM THAT CAN BE SOLVED WITH COMMON SENSE.

Stupid stupid stupid. What is the writer talking about? We dont hibernate in beds all the time. Are we going to clad ourselves head to toe in Nets to walk about just to avoid mosquitoes? Is this man living o planet earth?

Hw can common nets eradicate malaria while dirty nd choked gutters still exist? What nonsense and senseless analysis is that. African leaders are still sleeping in their slamber. GOD SAVE US, AFRICA.
