The adoption of new vector control tools, such as protective coating (PC), requires understanding the social dynamics that influence their acceptance and feasibility. This study investigated the experiences and perspectives of diverse stakeholders involved in a vector control project in urban Colombia, with the aim of assessing community acceptance and operational feasibility. Insights gained are important for optimizing implementation and gauging the broader viability of innovative vector control strategies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A qualitative descriptive study was conducted using focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with 70 key stakeholders, including community leaders (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20093), community volunteers (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200930), vector control staff (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20097), supervisors (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20095), and community residents (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200925).
