- Abstract
Dengue hemorrhagic disease is a vector-based disease. Transmission by Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae. Handling by deciding the vector life cycle, by killing Aedes aegypti larvae, to eradicate Aedes aegypti larvae, with natural ingredients such as lemon grass (Andropogon nardus L) which can be used as mosquito repellent. This study aims to determine Effect of larvae death of aedes aegypti on the decoction of the leaves of lemon grass leaves at a water reservoir. The research location in Central Curup Village is the number of surveyed houses as many as 36 water reservoirs. Observational research, cross sectional study design. Survey larvae by means of single larva method. Survey data were analyzed using chi-square test. The results almost almost all 29 (80.6%), from 36 Aedes aegypti larvae died in 50 ml stew of lemongrass leaves water in under 2 minutes. Chi-square analysis obtained value P = 0.04 <α 0.05, means there is a statistically significant relationship between decoction of serai wangi leaves on larva larva Aedes aegypti.Dimana value OR = 4.103 which means the influence of decoction of lemon grass leaves on the death of larvae Aedes aegypti more , 4.10 times, through the activity of getting used to boil the leaves of citronella and pour into the water reservoir as needed.
