The aims of this research were to know the enfluence of concentration of Carica papaya’s methanol extract to lethality of Aedes aegypti’s larvas and to determine the biolarvaside activity of Carica papaya’s methanol extract against Aedes aegypti’s larvas. In this research, extraction conducted using maceration method and biolarvaside activity (LC-50) was analyzed by probit analysis. The results of research showed that concentration of Carica papaya’s methanol extract enfluenced the lethality of Aedes aegypti larvas with LC-50 of 1409,61 ppm.
