## Abstract
The data reveals several gaps in protection against mosquito exposure across all eight regencies of Papua assessed. There is a need to optimize indoor interventions, as current vector control efforts do not adequately address outdoor exposure. Assessing spatial and temporal exposure can help identify effective protective vector strategies for these areas while highlighting persistent exposure risks. Community-based larval source management could enhance overall exposure reduction. Additionally, innovative measures like spatial repellents may address some protective gaps, together with improved case detection and treatment. The findings indicate that the existing strategy may not suffice to eradicate malaria in the region, necessitating a reconsidered, evidence-based, and adaptive approach.
