This is an interesting company with an interesting solution to a problem for half the planet. The problem is the sick home and the solution comes from a Spanish firm - - Inesfly. Historically the solution to contolling mosquitoes that cause malaria and dengue are nets and sprays. The founder of Inesfly is Spanish chemist Pilar Mateo and she has come up with a very innovative solution. She has invented a way to embed pesticides in microcapsules stirred in to house paints. The insecticides are released from the paint slowly, remaining effective for two to four years. The small amounts of pesticides released from the paint aren't harmful according to independent research.
The paint and process is already approved in 15 countries.
