| dc.description.abstract | Aedes aegypti mosquito which is the main vector of the disease Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever
(DHF) and Yellow Fever / Chikungunya. As a result of transovarial transmission of dengue
virus within the body of the female mosquito Aedes aegypti into the eggs. The eggs hatch into
larvae when already having dengue virus in his body without having to suck the blood of
patients with DHF. Population density of Aedes aegypti larvae measured by the density and
number of containers is very real impact on cases of dengue transmission. Two factors related
to the presence and density of larvae itself include sociodemographic and environmental
factors, both of which interact with each other. This study aims to determine the influence of
sociodemographic and environmental factors on the population density of Aedes aegypti
mosquito larvae in the Village Benculuk and to know the dominant factor causing population
density of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae. The design of the study design using qualitative
methods. The results of the study showed the influence of the level of knowledge and behavior
with the density of mosquito larvae of Aedes aegypti in the Village Benculuk, Banyuwangi. The
influence of the distance between houses, the presence of water reservoirs and fish-eating
larvae of the Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae density in the Village Benculuk, Banyuwangi.
Environmental factors that affect population density dominates the mosquito Aedes aegypti
larvae in the Village Benculuk, Banyuwangi. | en_US |
