Abstract

The process of making a piece of woven fabric using natural dyes takes a long time, starting from collecting the materials to dyeing the yarn. This causes the weaving activists in the Dahlia Farmers Group to only be able to weave one piece of cloth in ± 3-4 days or even 1 week. The Dahlia Farmers Group has used natural dyes for generations, but the use of natural dyes is only on woven yarn and has not known and tried to make ecoprint. This prompted the Service Team to provide skills in the form of socialization and ecoprint training as a new innovation in the use of natural dyes. In addition, this training is also to instill knowledge and stimulate ideas about environmentally sustainable entrepreneurial products, thereby increasing income, and introducing additional products outside of traditional weaving. The approach adopted in this training, in addition to socialization explaining the principles of ecoprint, also focuses specifically on pounding techniques. Based on the results of the activity, it appears that the partners are enthusiastic and have a great interest in the training and the products produced, in the form of plant-patterned fabrics and bags with a variety of colors.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by the dengue virus, transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. The high number of DHF cases is influenced by a weak immune system and high mosquito population density. People generally use synthetic insecticides to prevent mosquito bites, but long-term use, such as mosquito coils and lotions containing DEET, has the potential to cause side effects. Therefore, safer and more environmentally friendly alternatives are needed, such as botanical insecticides. Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus L.) is one plant that has the potential to be a mosquito repellent because it contains the compounds geraniol, citronellal, and citronellol. Although some members of the Dahlia farmer group have citronella plants in their yards, their use as a mosquito repellent has not been optimized. Community Service (PKM) activities are carried out through outreach and training on making bio-spray from citronella as a mosquito repellent for dengue prevention. This activity aims to educate the public, especially housewives who are members of the Dahlia farmer group, about the dangers of dengue fever, the risks of long-term use of chemical insecticides, and the development of plant-based bio-sprays as an alternative solution to reduce the number of dengue fever transmissions.
