3.2
control fabric
fabric used for comparing in anti-mosquitoes properties with the sample to be tested
Note 1: It is proven that using standard cotton adjacent fabric for color fastness testing that is treated by high-temperature boiling and distilled water washing is suitable as control fabric.
Note 2: If necessary, fabric made of the same material as the sample but without anti-mosquitoes treatment may be used as control fabric.
4 Safety precautions
This method requires operators' contact with mosquitoes and involves maintaining the conditions for their reproduction. Therefore, the test shall be conducted by trained operators in a designated testing environment.
