Data on the success of rat catching was done by catching rat at the site. Data were analyzed descriptively and bivariate analysis. The results showed that vegetation (OR = 1,103, 95% CI = 0,987-1,234, p = 0,579) and pets (OR = 0,567; 95% CI = 0,47-6,895; p = 0,653) were statistically unrelated to the incidence of leptospirosis.
