Description

Definition
SPRAYEDMEM indicates whether the interior walls of the household dwelling were sprayed against mosquitoes by a member of the household in the past 12 months.

The information in SPRAYEDMEM is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
