aITN (or pyrethroid-only nets) covers both conventionally treated nets that rely on periodic re-treatment of nets by dipping into an insecticide formulation, and factory-treated LLINs made of netting material with insecticide incorporated within or bound around the fibres. LLINs are defined as retaining their effective biological activity for at least 20 WHO standard washes under laboratory conditions and three years of recommended use under field conditions [20]
