Across Africa, from the mud flats of Nigeria to the coral reefs off Mozambique, mosquito-net fishing is a growing problem, an unintended consequence of one of the biggest and most celebrated public health campaigns in recent years.

“No one is going to come forward in a survey and say, ‘That thing you’re giving me, we’re not using it properly,’ ” said Seth Faison, a spokesman for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which has financed the purchase of 450 million nets.

One of the few detailed studies on the issue showed that in several villages along Lake Tanganyika, an essential body of water shared by four East African nations, 87.2 percent of households used mosquito nets to fish.

Every morning at sunrise in Antongil Bay, along Madagascar’s ruggedly beautiful northern coast, fishing crews drag seines made from mosquito nets through the putty-colored sea.

They work from shore, tugging the nets through shallow waters, precisely where many species spawn, creating another potential problem: the slow, steady destruction of sensitive aquatic breeding grounds.
