Mosquito Netting

Insects and Disease In many areas of the world, biting insects are not only a nuisance, but a major health threat. Malaria is just one of the many insect-borne diseases for which there is no vaccination. Anti-malarial drugs can provide some protection against some strains of malaria, but none are effective against all strains. For this reason, both the World Health Organization and the U.S. Center for Disease Control highly recommend sleeping under a bed net to reduce contact with insects.
