"The leading mosquito net manufacturers insist that their products are not dangerous. Still, many nets are labeled: 'Do not wash in a lake or a river.'"
I'm interested to know what language this label was written in. Bemba? Nyanja? Moreover, where did the manufacturers intend for Zambians to wash the nets?
- sangnoir 12y agoGenerally nets are not supposed to be washed with untreated water (doing so will wash away the infused chemicals). If you are going to wash the net, you are supposed to wash it in a bucket or any small container with treated water to maintain potency.
