Discussion

Analysis of ITN trends highlights geographic disparities in malaria prevention measures across Nigeria.

Significant geographic and temporal variations in access to and use of insecticide-treated nets were found.
Access to bed nets increased over time for women of reproductive age, particularly in northern states, yet usage remained low.
Children under five saw increased usage in northern states, while access and usage disparities persisted between regions.
Regional public health interventions are essential to increase bed net utilization and overcome cultural barriers.
