Data were collected using a questionnaire and documentary sheet of DHF case reports. Data analysis used Rank Spearman's test. It was found that the majority of jumantik's role was good (77.6%) and the incidence of dengue fever decreased (74.6%). The analysis shows that there is a significant relationship between the role of jumantik and the incidence of dengue fever in the UPTD Puskesmas Kuta Selatan with a moderate and positive correlation, which means the better the role of jumantik in carrying out their duties. The better the jumantik work, the incidence of dengue fever decreases (p value 0.002 <α 0.05 and coefficient correlation of 0, 427).
