Household ownership of insecticide treated nets (ITNs) and use of ITNs, Malawi, 2000–2010. (A) Household ownership of at least one ITN is shown for all households and disaggregated by urban/rural residence. Questions on brand of net and on treatment of nets with insecticide were not included in the 2000 Demographic and Health Survey (DHS); thus, ITN ownership cannot be estimated for this survey. (B) Use of an ITN is estimated for children less than 5 years of age, pregnant women, and the entire population in the household the night before the survey. Questions on net use by the total population were not included in the 2000 DHS or the 2006 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS). The 2006 MICS is only representative for pregnant women who have had a birth in the past 2 years.
