dc.description.abstractHouses with house-screening (HS) compared to regular netting/unprotected households, had significatively lower risk for having Ae. aegypti female mosquitoes (OR=0.56, 95% C. I. 0.33-0.99) and blood-fed females (OR=0.53, 95% C. I. 0.28-0.97). All project participants were satisfied with the installation process and positive about the efficacy because of perceived significant reductions of mosquito in their houses (>80%). All participants recommended scaling up of the intervention. The technical report provides details of screen installation, participant perspectives, project implementation, cost-benefit analysis and findings. Urban improvements that reduce mosquito populations, especially disease vectors are an important component of sustainable development. The report is in English and Spanish.en
