Evaluating Community-Based Vector Control Programmes in Nigerian Villages Against Malaria Transmission,Context
Abstract
Vector-borne diseases such as malaria pose significant public health challenges in Nigeria, particularly affecting rural communities where access to healthcare is limited.

Despite challenges, community engagement and targeted interventions significantly impacted malaria transmission dynamics within monitored villages. Further research should explore scalability of these programmes across different geographical settings and evaluate long-term sustainability.
