BELIGA,SENEGAL-In order to prevent the fatal spread of malaria, Adam (on behalf of 100 Friends and with the help of local NGO Tostan) purchased 400 insecticide-treated bednets for this rural community of Senegal. The villagers will now sleep safely, avoiding the lethal fate of million plus people that die from malaria every year.
how potent is the insecticide used on the nets? i work at a research laboratory and some insecticides we use on our fruit trees can be pretty caustic and nasty.. just wondered if there could possibly be any health risks to people who use these..
