Interviewer instructions

TN5 is about the type and brand of net. You may encounter nets in the field that you will not recognize. During training, you will be shown all the common mosquito nets that are available in the country. The brand name is often located on the net itself. A picture of the different types of nets available in the country may also be provided for reference during interviews. Use this to identify the type of net in the dwelling and circle the corresponding number on the questionnaire.

If the respondent tells you or you learn from the packaging that the net is long-lasting try to determine the exact brand. If you cannot determine the brand circle '18' for 'DK brand'.

Similarly, if you determine that the net is pre-treated but it is not one of the listed brands, circle '26'and specify the brand of the net in the space provided. When you cannot determine the brand but have determined that it is pre-treated, circle '28' for 'DK brand'.

In some cases, you may be able to identify the brand but not what the type of net it is; for those nets, circle '31' (Other). Code '98' should be circled when you cannot obtain information on either the type or brand. For nets for which you circle '31' or '98' in question TN5, you must probe to find out if the respondent knows whether or not the net was treated when the household first got the net.
