Description

Definition
SPRAYEDRETOUCH indicates whether the walls of the dwelling had been retouched (by adding mortar, paint, or plaster or by washing) since the walls were sprayed against mosquitoes.

The information in SPRAYEDRETOUCH is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
