Codes and Frequencies
Description
SPRAYEDYR (HV253) indicates whether the interior walls of the household dwelling were sprayed against mosquitoes in the past 12 months (or some other recent reference period; see Comparability).
The information in SPRAYEDYR 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 when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.

Comparability
Along with universe differences, SPRAYEDYR (HV253) differs across samples in question wording (see below).
Comparability - Standard DHS
SPRAYEDYR (HV253) is included in Phases VI and VII of the standard DHS household questionnaire. The question was only included in countries with an organized spraying program to prevent the transmission of malaria.
Comparability — Rwanda [top]
The 2008 Rwanda survey asks whether the dwelling was sprayed against mosquitoes "between August and October 2007," presumably as part of a public health campaign in Kigali province.
Comparability — Uganda [top]
The 2016 and 2018 Uganda surveys use a reference period of the last six months.
