Temephos is an insecticide active ingredient often used by a community as Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) vector control in imago. The development of Ae aegypti is influenced by biotic and abiotic factors. This study aimed at determining the effects of temephos concentration on mortality and a life level of Ae aegypti at some concentration tests.The experimental design used in this study was Complete Random Design (CRD). This study involved temephos as the active ingredient and third instar Ae. Aegypti larvae originating from Pangandaran Regency. Data analysis used an ANOVA test with 5 treatments and 5 replications. The results showed that there was any influence of concentration towards a number of mortality, a life level, morphology of larvae, pupae and imago, a number of males and females, and a number of eggs hatchability. Temephos concentration affected the mortality of third instar larvae of Ae. aegypti with temephos concentration of 0.019 ppm, 0.069 ppm, 0.105 ppm, and 0.140 ppm and affected a life level of Ae. aegypti with biological parameters.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a disease that is found in some tropical and subtropical regions. This disease is caused by dengue virus and is transmitted to humans through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. the solution taken in controlling DHF is to break the life cycle of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Vector control is generally carried out using synthetic larvicides, namely abate / temefos, but the use of abate can cause residues, environmental pollution, poisoning and resistance of the eradicated vectors so that natural larvasides from plants are needed namely temulawak rhizome (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) for vector control. The purpose of this study was to determine whether temulawak rhizome extract was effective or not in killing Aedes aegypti larvae. This research method includes larva collection, identification and maintenance of mosquitoes, determining sample size, making extracts and testing effectiveness. This study used a control and experiment group with 3 repetitions in the minutes to 15, 30, 45, 60 and 1440 (24 Hours). The control group was positive control using abate and negative control using aquades while the eksperiment group used extract of temulawak rhizome (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) with concentrations of 0.6%, 0.8%, 1%, 1.2% and 1.5%. The results of this study indicate that the temulawak rhizome extract (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) effective as larvicides because at the lowest concentration 0.6% can kill 100% Aedes aegypti larvae.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a health problem in Indonesia. The entire region of Indonesia at risk of contracting dengue disease. The study aims to prove the effect of modifications ovitrap rekattidiri on the density of larvae (HI: House Index, CI: Container Index and BI: Breteu Index) as well as comparing the differences between the mean larvae trapped between ovitrap Rekattidiri with standard ovitrap. Using a quasi experimental design, time series experimental design with Control group. Population subjects were Aedes aegypti at the endemic sites in Pontianak, West Borneo. The results showed larval density index in the intervention area decreased each ie HI from 26% to 3%, CI of 6.95% to 2.19 %, and BI from 29% to 13%. The number of larvae trapped in ovitrap rekattidiri ie 70% (12,770 larvae) more than the standard ovitrap in the control and intervention, namely: 17% (3,057 larvae) and 13% (2,334 larvae). It is concluded that there are significant modifications Rekattidiri ovitrap against larval density index (HI p-value: 0.025, CI p-value: 0.052, BI value of p: 0.04) and there are differences between the mean larvae trapped in ovitrap Rekattidiri and standard ovitrap with p value: 0.001.

Aedes albopictus is a plant that causes Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is not as prevalent as Aedes Aegypti is not a disease given by Aedes albopictus mosquito is not much different from Aedes Aegypti mosquito. The Case Fatality Rate (CFR) of Dengue Fever is very high in Indonesia, at 41.4% at the beginning of dengue cases in Indonesia. Innovation continues to create for disease vector control to break the chain of disease. The use of sterile insect techniques is a useful thing in the things that need to be socialized in the community.

Except for Yellow Fever there is still no operational vaccine, the Dengue vaccine (CYD-TDV, sold under the brand name Dengvaxia©) raised several issues and vaccination campaign were stopped. On the other hand there is still no specific treatment for the main arbovirus transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus such as dengue, Chikungunya, Zika and recent outbreaks occurred all over the World. For WHO “vector control is the key strategy to control or prevent the transmission of dengue (and other arbovirus) but clearly there is a need for improved new vector control approaches. Only another one vaccine is available against arbovirus is against Japanese Encephalitis transmitted by Culex tritaeniorhynchus. In line with this recommended approaches of new tools to be used at community level we successfully developed and implemented in Angola a “Very Simple Ovitrap Model” which actually “collected” eggs of Aedes aegypti warning for risk of arbovirus outbreaks, which, unfortunately, occurred few years later. These ovitraps were transformed as a tool for vector control in adding few drops of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) in the water and several hundred of tests showed that not a single larva of Aedes aegypti was ever found in these “Bt fitted simple ovitrap”. To solve some operational issues (transport) we tested in Bali during 3 years several size and color of foldable container prepared as ovitraps and put in a garden among grass, banana trees etc, we thus collected eggs of Aedes albopictus, important vector of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), a serious threat in Asia, and preliminary tests (unpub.) showed some resistance to insecticide increasing the need for control. According to these trials, made in complete field conditions, we proposed a new foldable model of ovitrap as a vector control tool presented as a kit to be used at community level with a 3 steps action: open it/fill it/use it.

ABSTRAK<br />Penyakit demam berdarah yang ditularkan oleh nyamuk Aedes<br />aegypti merupakan penyakit yang hampir selalu terjadi setiap tahunnya di<br />beberapa daerah di Indonesia. Salah satu cara untuk menghindarinya<br />adalah dengan penggunaan lotion anti nyamuk yang pada umumnya<br />berbahan aktif bahan kimia sintetis. Perlu dicari bahan alami yang lebih<br />aman dalam menghindari gigitan nyamuk, salah satunya adalah dengan<br />penggunaan selasih. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui daya<br />proteksi selasih (Ocimum gratisimum dan Ocimum bassilicum) terhadap<br />serangan nyamuk Aedes aegypti (vektor penyakit demam berdarah<br />dengue). Penelitian dilakukan di laboratorium Entomologi, Fakultas<br />Kedokteran Hewan, Institut Pertanian Bogor pada tahun 2006. Selasih<br />diuji dalam bentuk minyak atsiri yang diencerkan dengan parafin cair pada<br />konsentrasi 20%; 10%; 5% dan 2,5%. Nyamuk betina hasil perbanyakan di<br />laboratorium merupakan serangga uji yang disimpan di dalam kurungan<br />uji. Pengujian dilakukan dengan cara memasukkan lengan secara<br />bergantian antara yang diberi perlakuan dan kontrol (tidak diberi<br />perlakuan) ke dalam kurungan nyamuk dan dihitung jumlah nyamuk yang<br />hinggap setiap jam, selama enam jam. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa selasih<br />berpotensi sebagai pengusir (repellent) nyamuk dengan daya proteksi<br />tertinggi sebesar 79,7% selama satu jam dan rata-rata 57,6% selama enam<br />jam. O. gratisimum lebih baik dua kali lipat daya proteksinya daripada O.<br />bassilicum, hal ini terjadi karena diduga bahan aktifnya lebih beragam,<br />yaitu selain mengandung eugenol 37,35%, juga thymol (9,67%) dan<br />cyneol (21,14%) dibandingkan dengan O. bassilicum yang hanya mengan-<br />dung eugenol sebanyak 46%.<br />Kata kunci : Selasih, Ocimum gratisimum, Ocimum bassilicum., Aedes<br />aegypti, daya proteksi, Jawa Barat<br />ABSTRACT<br />Potency of Ocimum spp. as repellent to Aedes aegypti<br />mosquito<br />The objective of the research is to evaluate the protection ability of<br />Ocimum spp. (gratisimum and bassilicum) against Aedes aegypti mosquito<br />(vector of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever). Ocimum was evaluated in the<br />form of essential oil diluted with liquid paraffin at concentrations of 20%;<br />10%; 5% and 2,5%. Female mosquitos reared in the laboratory were<br />placed in the cages. Alternately, treated and untreated hand (control) were<br />inserted into the cage containing mosquitos. The number of mosquitos<br />perched on the hand were counted every hour, lasting for six hours. Result<br />showed that Ocimum was prospecting to be developed as a mosquito<br />repellent, although its repellency was still under the repellency of synthetic<br />repellent (DEET). The repellency of O. gratisimum was better than O.<br />bassilicum since O. gratisimum possessing variety of active ingredient<br />beside eugenol (37.35%), such as thymol (9.67%) and cyneol (21.14)<br />compared to O. bassilicum which is only possessing eugenol as much as<br />46%.<br />Key words : Selasih, Ocimum gratisimum, Ocimum bassilicum, Aedes<br />aegypti, protection ability, West Java

Indonesia is known as a dengue-endemic country with an increasing number of cases. Appropriate dengue vector control efforts are needed to control the transmission of this disease effectively and efficiently. Botanical larvicide is one type of dengue vector control which is expected to be an alternative as a substitute for chemical larvicides. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of red betel  (Piper crocatum)infusion on the mortality of Ae. aegypti. True experimental design with post-test only with control group was used in this study. The test was carried out by dividing the sample into two groups, including the red betel infusion group and the control group (with aquadest), the observations were carried out for 24 hours. The results of the study showed that the larvacide test of red betel leaf infusion had an effect on 12 to 24 hours, and there was an increase in mortality of Ae. egypti for 24 hours. The humidity of the test room is one of the factors that can affect the results of the study. Abstrak Indonesia dikenal sebagai negara endemis dengue dengan jumlah kasus yang terus meningkat.  Appropriate dengue vector control efforts diperlukan untuk mengendalikan penularan penyakit ini secara efektif dan efisien.

ABSTRAK  Latar belakang: Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) disebabkan oleh virus Dengue dapat menyebabkan kematian. Pencegahan DBD yang dianggap paling tepat adalah Pemberantasan Sarang Nyamuk (PSN). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pelatihan pengendalian vektor Demam Berdarah pada siswa sekolah dasar terhadap Maya Index di Majalengka. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain quasi experiment (pretest-posttest control group design). Sebanyak 4 sekolah terpilih sebagai kelompok intervensi dan 4 sekolah lainnya sebagai kontrol. Subyek penelitian adalah siswa kelas IV-VI yang terdiri dari 171 siswa pada kelompok intervensi dan 163 pada kelompok kontrol. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah formulir pemantauan jentik berkala. Hasil: Jumlah rumah dengan kategori Maya Index tinggi berkurang dari 27,5% menjadi 9,4%. Terjadi penurunan angka BRI kategori tinggi pada kelompok intervensi dari 20,5% menjadi 1,8%. Pada kelompok kontrol tidak terjadi penurunan angka BRI kategori tinggi (22,1%), sebaliknya terjadi penurunan kategori rendah dari 34,4% menjadi 3,7%. Tidak terjadi penurunan angka HRI pada kelompok intervensi maupun kontrol. Kesimpulan: Pelatihan pengendalian vektor Demam Berdarah dapat menurunkan nilai BRI dan Maya Index, tetapi tidak berpengaruh terhadap nilai HRI. Tidak adanya perubahan nilai HRI menunjukkan bahwa kebersihan dan sanitasi lingkungan merupakan faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap probabilitas kejadian demam berdarah. Kata Kunci : Demam Berdarah, Maya Index, pelatihan, pengendalian vektor   ABSTRACT Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) caused by Dengue virus could cause death. The most appropriate prevention of Dengue is eradication of mosquito nests (PSN). This study aims to determine the effect of Dengue vector control training on elementary students towards Maya Index in Majalengka. Method: This study used quasi-experimental design (pretest-posttest control group design). A total of 4 schools were selected as intervention groups and 4 other schools as controls. The subjects were students in grades IV-VI consisting of 171 students in the intervention group and 163 in the control group. The instrument used was periodic larva monitoring form. Results: The number of houses with a high Maya Index category in the intervention group decreased from 27.5% to 9.4%. There was a decrease in the high BRI category in the intervention group from 20.5% to 1.8%. In the control group, there was no decrease in the high BRI category (22.1%), on the contrary, there was a decrease in the low category from 34.4% to 3.7%. There was no decrease in HRI rates both of intervention or control groups. Conclusion: Dengue Fever vector control training could decrease the value of BRI and Maya Index, but does not affect the value of HRI. The absence of changes in HRI  indicate that environmental hygiene and sanitation are factors that influence the probability of dengue fever occurrence. Keywords: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever, Maya Index, training, vector control
