Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is a major global problem because 2.5 to 3 billion people are at risk of developing this disease, Aedes Aegypti is the main epidemic vector, a disease that usually affects urban areas, but has begun to attack rural areas, an estimated 50-100 million cases per year. The only program to control the transmission of dengue virus is to fight mosquitoes as dengue vectors. One of the most popular methods is the use of insecticides. The use of insecticides for a certain period of time will cause vector resistance, so it must be used wisely. This study aims to determine the effect of the use of mosquito killers as an alternative to controlling Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes in the working area of ​​the Sindang Barang Health Center. This type of research is an experimental method with a pretest-posttest design, the treatment given is exposure to a mosquito killer device which is divided into 2 groups with different placement hours. The study was conducted in the Sindang Barang Health Center Work Area in August-September 2022 in an area that has the highest incidence of dengue cases, the mosquito killer is placed in a humid and dark corner of the room. The results of the pretest-posttest data on mosquito density obtained a significance value of 0.053, which means that the use of mosquito killers is not effective for controlling Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a major global problem, with 2.5 to 3 billion people at risk of developing the disease. Aedes aegypti is the main vector in epidemics, a disease that usually affects urban areas, but is starting to hit rural areas, infecting an estimated 50 to 100 million people each year. The only program to control it is mosquito control as a vector. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using modified mosquito killer as an alternative to controlling Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes. The method in this study was an experiment with a pretest-posttest design. The research was conducted in July-September 2022. The population in this study was 34 houses of residents suffering from DHF in the Sindang Barang Health Center, Bogor City. The sampling technique in this study used the sowball sampling technique. The procedure in this study used UV light to attract mosquitoes and fan suction to attract mosquitoes into the trap then assessed changes in the density of Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes using observation sheets and hand counters using measuring instruments, namely changes in the number of mosquitoes trapped and killed in units. tail at 10.00-11.00 WIB. The results of the pretest-posttest data show that the density of mosquitoes has a significance value of 0.053. So it can be concluded that the use of a modified mosquito killer is not effective as an alternative to controlling Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The use of mosquito killers depends on humidity and temperature factors.
