The advantages of a Long Lasting Impregnated Net are: it repels mosquitoes, it also kills them when within or in contact with the net. In addition the bednet provides some protection to the user from fleas, bed-bugs, sandflies etc. The impregnated net can be used by adults and children for protection against mosquito-borne diseases and is recommended for use in areas with reported diseases such as malaria, dengue, encephalitis, etc.
