A generic risk assessment model for insecticide treatment of mosquito nets and their subsequent use
The model proposed covers the assessment of any risks to those treating bednets with insecticide in a domestic setting (operators) and to those sleeping under insecticide-treated bednets (users). While it is recognized that there is an increasing interest in the commercial production of pre-treated bednets, the generic model proposed is for the simplest situation of domestic treatment and use of nets and does not include the special situation of commercial production of nets in a factory environment.

Field testing and evaluation of insecticides for indoor residual spraying against Chagas vectors
The document outlines the general procedures for field trials of residual insecticides against domestic Triatominae, where the aim is to eliminate the domestic bug populations and inhibit reinfestations. The procedure is suitable for village-scale field trials, whose toxicological safety has already been approved.
The procedure also allows for multiple village trials in order to compare the effects of different products, or different formulations of the same product, or different doses of the same formulation.
