Mosquito Vector Control

Indonesia has the highest number of dengue fever cases in Southeast Asia and the second highest TB cases in the world. Both diseases are related to behavior. Social marketing focuses on changes in health behaviors. This study aimed to apply social marketing on dengue mosquito vector control and TB case finding and to analyze the effect of social marketing training on the knowledge and skills of community health workers (CHWs). A mixed method design was conducted in Pati, Central Java, Indonesia. First, a case study was conducted using field observation, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGD), and document review. In-depth interviews and FGD were conducted on 55 participants including 40 community leaders and 15 CHWs. Data were analyzed using content analysis. Second, intervention study was conducted on social marketing training of 30 CHWs. The independent variable was social marketing training. The dependent variables were knowledge and skill of dengue mosquito vector control and TB case finding. The effect of training was analyzed by paired t test. The results showed that knowledge (p<0.001) and skill (p<0.001) in dengue mosquito vector control and TB case finding increased significantly after training. Qualitative assessment showed that CHWs were more able to identify health problems in the community and to perform TB case finding and dengue mosquito breeding place eradication. After training they also became more knowledgeable in applying social marketing approach to address the health problem. In conclusion, social marketing strategy can be used to address community health problem.

Mosquito Vector Control

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.

AbstractAnopheles arabiensis Patton populations occur in those areas of Natal in which intra-domiciliary DDT is used for mosquito vector control and in the unsprayed areas. Indoor resting collections from the unsprayed area showed a human blood index >90%, in contrast to the indoor collections from the sprayed area where only 31% had fed on man. In exit trap collections from the sprayed area, 66% had fed on man. These trends of a high human blood index in the exit trap collections and a low human blood index in the indoor resting catches were unaffected, despite the close proximity of a cattle kraal to the majority of homesteads.
