There are three types of bed nets; pre-treated nets, insecticide-treated nets and long –lasting insecticide treated nets. The use of pre-treated nets is NOT recommended because concentrations of insecticide in the nets are extremely variable and would be rejected under normal quality controls. Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) consist of an untreated net and an insecticide treatment kit. A long lasting net is a ready-to-use pre-treated mosquito net, which requires no further treatment during its expected life span.
