Ovitrap index numbers outside (57.7%) and inside the house (53.6%) with an overall ovitrap index of 55.6%. The resistance test results using the CDC bottle bioassay method showed that Aedes sp mosquitoes from Pinang Kencana Village were resistant to the pesticide deltamethrin dose of 10 g/bottle with a diagnosis time of 30 minutes with a mosquito mortality percentage of 68.33%.
