  abstract = {{B}ackground: {M}alaria vector control is mostly based on {L}ong-{L}asting {I}nsecticidal {N}ets ({LLIN}). {T}o date, all {LLIN}s fully recommended by the {W}orld {H}ealth {O}rganization {P}esticide {S}cheme ({WHOPES}) are made of polyester or polyethylene. {I}n this context, a new {LLIN} named {L}ife{N}et({C}), made of polypropylene fiber is developed. {A}ccording to the manufacturer, {L}ife{N}et({C}) is made of soft filament, has a greater mechanical strength, a superior insecticide wash resistance with a short insecticide regeneration time, a better flammability profile and a better environmental profile compared to polyester or polyethylene nets. {M}ethods: {T}hrough a {WHOPES} supervised trial, the efficacy of {L}ife{N}et({C}) was evaluated in {B}enin in experimental huts against free-flying wild mosquitoes. {R}esults: {L}ife{N}et({C}) has equal or better performances in terms of wash resistance, exophily, blood feeding inhibition and mortality compared to conventionally treated nets ({CTN}) treated with deltamethrin at 25 mg/m(2) and washed to just before exhaustion. {C}onclusions: {T}he efficacy of {L}ife{N}et({C}) observed in this trial indicates that this net fulfill {W}orld {H}ealth {O}rganization {P}esticide {S}cheme ({WHOPES}) requirement for {L}ong {L}asting technology in {P}hase {II}. {T}hroughout a {P}hase {III} trial currently ongoing in {S}outhern {B}enin, the durability and the acceptability of this long-lasting insecticidal mosquito nets will be assessed under community conditions.},
