Abstract

Introduction: The vector control that should be carried out today is biological control made from natural ingredients to reduce the negative impacts of the use of chemicals. Therefore, this research aims to examine the ability of residual oil from clove leaves (Syzigium aromaticum) to kill the larvae of the mosquito through field tests. Methods: This research uses experimental methods carried out in the field. This investigation is a follow-up investigation based on laboratory test results. This research uses test larvae obtained directly from the field without going through the breeding process in the laboratory. This research used the concentration of clover leaf (Syzigium aromaticum) residual oil that was adopted from laboratory test results, that is, a concentration of 0.006%; 0.007%; 0.008%; 0.009% and 0.01%. This research uses guidelines from the WHO Guidelines testing standards. Results: The results of this research show that waste oil from clove leaves (Syzigium aromaticum) is capable of killing mosquito larvae in field tests. For Aedes aegyipti larvae, the concentration that is effective in killing larvae starts from a concentration of 0.008%-0.01%, while in tests with Culex sp and Anopheles sp larvae, leaf waste oil Clove (Syzigium aromaticum) is effective in killing larvae at all. concentrations (0.006-0.01%). The implications and significance of this research show that clove leaf (Syzigium aromaticum) waste oil has proven to be effective as a base for developing natural and economical larvicidal products and can support government programs to eradicate diseases such as dengue, malaria and chikungunya, which are caused by mosquito vectors Conclusion: Waste oil from clove leaves (Syzigium aromaticum) can be used as an alternative ingredient to kill Aedes aegypti, Culex sp and Anopheles sp mosquito larvae in field tests.

Abstract

Introduction: One of the vectors of disease spread is flies. House flies (Musca domestica) are often found alive in almost all types of environments. Several previous studies have shown that pandanus leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius), basil leaves (Ocimum sanctum), and bay leaves (Syzygium polyanthum) contain active compounds that are toxic to insects, but no one has compared the effectiveness of the four types of plants. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of administering extracts from various plant leaves as a bioinsecticide for houseflies (Musca domestica). Methods: This type of research is experimental using a completely randomized design with 6 treatments. The treatment consisted of administering Pandan Leaf extract (Pandanus amaryllifolius), Basil Leaf extract (Ocimum sanctum) and Laurel Leaf extract (Syzygium polyanthum) each with a concentration of 5 ml, 10 ml and 15 ml and using a control for comparison. Observations were carried out for 24 hours observing the number of dead flies. Results: The results of this study indicate that pandan leaf extract (Pandanus amaryllifolius), basil leaf extract (Ocimum sanctum), and bay leaf extract (Syzygium polyanthum) are effective in killing houseflies (Musca domestica). The most effective concentration being 15 ml. Research Implications: This research demonstrates that the use of natural bioinsecticides from plant extracts can control the population of house flies (Musca domestica) so that the risk of disease transmission in the community can be significantly minimized Conclusion: Pandan leaf extract (Pandanus amaryllifolius), basil leaf extract (Ocimum sanctum) and bay leaf extract (Syzygium polyanthum) can be used as natural alternative ingredients to exterminate houseflies (Musca domestica) Limitations of the research: This research did not control environmental conditions such as sunlight, temperature, and humidity. Other than that, neither the effects on fly resistance nor the effects on non-target organisms have been studied. Recommendations for Future Research: It is hoped that future research can examine the effects of fly resistance and killing on non-target organisms and control environmental conditions.
