Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is caused by Dengue Virus and transmitted by female Aedes mosquito which spread almost all over the world. Aedes sp. mosquito lives cosmopolitan and breeds in wet environments. Panggungharjo and Bangunharjo villages were categorized as endemic and non-endemic DHF areas, respectively. The aims of this research were to study the characteristics of Aedes sp. mosquito breeding sites, the identity of presence species found in the sites, and the resistance status of Aedes sp. mosquitoes against organophosphate insecticide. The method was using a larval survey which consists of 200 houses as respondents located in Panggungharjo and Bangunharjo villages. The larval resistance was tested by a biochemical method since resistance could be associated with esterase enzyme activity. The characteristics of mosquito breeding sites that found were open containers, filled with clear and calm water, dark and rough wall surfaces, the bottom surface was not directly in contact with the ground, the water temperature was 27-29 °C, pH 6.5-7, and not directly exposed to sunlight. There was only one species of mosquito was found, Aedes aegypti. The resistance test of Aedes sp. larvae showed that Aedes sp. larvae population from Panggungharjo village were susceptible, and Aedes sp. larvae from Bangunharjo village were in moderate resistant against organophosphate insecticide.

<span lang="EN-US">The incidence of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is still a public health problem in Indonesia. Observations over a period of 20 to 25 years since the beginning of  the discovering of the disease, has show the increase of the diseases incidence every five years. The purpose of this study are 1) study the diversity of <em>Aedes’</em>s mosquitoes in Sukabumi City, 2) measure the <em>Aedes </em>population based on the number of eggs and ovitrap index, and 3) to know the correlation between ovitrap index and house condition. <em>Aedes</em> eggs were collected from 14 villages in Sukabumi City that has the highest incidence rate, started from May 2015 until August 2015. Collecting eggs is done by setting a trap eggs (ovitrap) as many as 230 pieces in 115 homes (indoor and outdoor). The results showed that <em>Ae. aegypti </em>were found inside houses and <em>Ae. albopictus </em>were outside houses.<em> </em>The number of eggs collected from ovitrap inside the houses were three times more than those collected from outside. Ovitrap index inside houses was 60%, or 1.6 times more than the ovitrap index outside the houses (37%) in 14 villages in Sukabumi. Houses with poor ventilation and sanitation increased the risk 3.09 times of number of ovitrap index. The results of this study could be use as basic information for the communities to improved environment hygiene through reduced mosquito breeding sites, thus degraded the incidence of dengue</span>

One effort in controlling the Aedes aegypti mosquito is to find out the breeding place. Until now it is known that the breeding sites of Aedes aegypti are found in urban areas, therefore the purpose of this study is to determine the  potential for breeding of Aedes aegypti mosquito and entomology index in urban areas. The study was conducted in 2015 using a cross-sectional method. The results showed that the container with positively Aedes aegypti larvae was found in all three districts, Ternate at 29.6%, Tidore Kepulauan at 28.5% and East Halmahera at 29.0%. The entomology index of Container Index (CI) was (29.5%), House Index (HI) was 35.3% and Breteau Index (BI) was 69.2%, while larva free number was 64.7%. From the results of this study, it was concluded that Aedes aegypti larvae mostly found in bathtub inside the house. Tubs and plastic buckets were the type of container that were found with most positively larvae. The average ldengue vector arvae density based on CI, HI and BI (Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) in the three districts / cities in North Maluku Province scale was 5-8 and included in the medium risk category. This showed that the entomology index in the North Maluku region was still low. Monitoring of the spread of mosquito breeding sites in all parts of Indonesia is still needed to reduce cases of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Abstrak Salah satu upaya dalam pengendalian nyamuk Aedes aegypti adalah dengan mengetahui tempat perkembangbiakannya. Hingga saat ini diketahui bahwa tempat perkembangbiakan Aedes aegypti banyak ditemukan di daerah perkotaan, oleh sebab itu tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui potensi perkembangbiakan nyamuk Aedes aegypti dan indeks entomologi di daerah perkotaan. Penelitian dilakukan pada tahun 2015 dengan menggunakan metode potong lintang. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa kontainer dengan positif jentik Aedes aegypti ditemukan di ketiga kabupaten yaitu Ternate sebesar 29,6%, Tidore Kepulauan sebesar 28,5%, dan Halmahera Timur sebesar 29,0%. Indeks entomologi Container Index (CI) sebesar (29,5%), House Index (HI) sebesar 35,3% dan Breteau Index (BI) sebesar 69,2%, sedangkan Angka Bebas Jentik sebesar 64,7%. Dari hasil penelitian ini didapatkan kesimpulan bahwa bak mandi yang berada di dalam rumah paling banyak ditemukan jentik Aedes aegypti. Jenis kontainer yang paling banyak ditemukan positif jentik yaitu pada bak mandi dan ember plastik. Rata-rata kepadatan jentik vektor dengue (Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus) berbasis CI, HI, dan BI di ketiga kabupaten/kota di Provinsi Maluku Utara skala 5-8 dan termasuk dalam kategori risiko sedang. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa indeks entomologi di wilayah Maluku Utara masih rendah, sehingga masih diperlukan pemantauan sebaran tempat perkembangbiakan nyamuk di seluruh wilayah Indonesia untuk mengurangi kasus Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD).

Tujuan penelitian untuk memperoleh gambaran determinan penyakit Demam Berdarah Dengue di Desa Baka Kecamatan Tinangkung Kabupaten Banggai Kepulauan Tahun 2019. Jenis penelitian ini adalah Deskriptif. Populasi dalam penelitian ini ada seluruh rumah yang ada di Desa Baka berjumlah 657 rumah. Besar sampel berjumlah 250 sampel. Hasil penelitian menunjukan lingkungan fisik dikategorikan berisiko terhadap kejadian penyakit DBD disebabkan kelembaban udara di Desa Baka sangat berpotensi terhadap perkembangbiakan nyamuk Aedes aegypti; lingkungan biologi diperoleh gambaran sangat berisiko terhadap kejadian penyakit DBD karena pada umumnya di Desa Baka memiliki tempat perindukan dan adanya jentik nyamuk Aedes aegypti.  Berdasarkan perilaku masyarakat seperti: kebiasaan menggantung pakaian, kebiasaan tidur siang, kebiasaan membersihkan TPA dan kebiasaan membersihkan halamam rumah, dikategorikan berisiko karena sebagian besar masyarakat masih melakukan perilaku atau kebiasaan yang dapat memberikan peluang nyamuk Aedes aegypti berkembang biak sebagai penular agen penyakit DBD. Diharapkan pada pemerintah daerah untuk mengaktifkan kembali jumat bersih. bagi instansi terkait untuk lebih meningkatkan pelaksanaan penyuluhan tentang kebersihan lingkungan, pemberantasan sarang nyamuk dan pemberian abate pada tempat-tempat penampungan air. Kepada pemeritah kecamatan untuk dapat mengaktifkan kembali petugas Juru Pemantau Jentik (JUMANTIK) di Desa minimal seminggu sekali mengingat perkembangan nyamuk dari telur menjadi jentik membutuhkan waktu kurang lebih 7 hari. The purpose of this study was to obtain a picture of the determinants of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in Baka Village, Tinangkung District, Banggai Kepulauan Regency in 2019. This type of research is descriptive. The population in this study were all houses in the village of Baka totaling 657 houses. Sample size is 250 samples. The results of the study showed that the physical environment was at risk for the incidence of dengue fever due to air humidity in Baka Village, which had the potential to breed Aedes aegypti mosquitoes; biological environment obtained a very risky picture of the incidence of DHF because in general in the village of Baka has a breeding place and the larvae of Aedes aegypti. Based on community behavior such as: the habit of hanging clothes, the habit of taking a nap, the habit of cleaning landfill and the habit of cleaning the yard, are categorized as risky because most of the community still conducts behaviors or habits that can provide opportunities for Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to breed as infectious agents for dengue disease. It is hoped that the regional government will reactivate Friday's clean. for related institutions to further enhance the implementation of education on environmental cleanliness, eradication of mosquito breeding sites and the provision of abates in water reservoirs. To the district government to be able to reactivate the larvae monitoring officer (JUMANTIK) in the village at least once a week considering the development of mosquitoes from eggs to larvaes takes approximately 7 days.


Cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever are associated with the potential for rainfall, temperature, and humidity. In a month mosquitoes can lay eggs approximately four times. In a month mosquitoes can lay eggs between 400 to 600 eggs. Mosquito eggs can survive, do not hatch, for six months because they do not touch the water. The existence of rainfall, humidity, and the appropriate temperature can accelerate the process of hatching mosquito eggs. Secondary data analysis research methods on BMKG data and Makassar City Health Department data in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The data analysis was carried out on 1–8 October 2019. The observation results revealed that high rainfall occurred in January, February, March, April, May and June. In July, August, September the rainfall is very low. Then entering November and December, the rainfall starts to high again. Air temperature does not occur significantly or not too extreme a difference every month. Humidity in the rainy season tends to be high. The incidence of dengue fever in the rainy season tends to increase. The number of mosquito larvae also tends to increase in the rainy season. It is recommended that before entering the rainy season, it should increase awareness of the incidence of dengue fever by reducing mosquito breeding sites through draining, closing, stockpiling. Drain and close the bathtub, and bury cans, plastic, and objects that can become mosquito breeding grounds.

Abstract High data on cases of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) every year is the reason for continuing to monitor the breeding sites of Aedes sp., to knowing  entomological indicators, and identifying the level used of resistance of insecticides The aim of the study was to observed entomological indicators, the presence of larvae in mosquito breeding sites and insecticide resistance to adult mosquitoes. This study uses a multicenter descriptive method with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection was carried out in 2015 in three districts/cities (Padang, Bukit Tinggi, and Pesisir Selatan) of West Sumatra Province. The results of the entomological indicators monitored are still in the moderate category. Mosquito breeding habitats including controllable containers with larvae positive containers so that the potential as a source of transmission is 90.27% and disposable containers  which contain positive larvae of 9.94%. Insecticides used by the community, deltamethrin still showed the results of susceptible and alphacypermethrin conditions showing tolerance, whereas malathion, lamdacyhalothrin, and cypermethrin were resistant. The results of the temephos test as a larvacide used for the elimination of larvae are resistant to occur in two districts, namely Pesisir Selatan and Bukit Tinggi. Regular monitoring is needed in mosquito breeding habitats and encourages people to always care about environmental cleanliness. It is also necessary to look for alternative insecticides that are safe for the community. Abstrak Data kasus Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) yang tinggi setiap tahun menjadi alasan untuk terus melakukan pemantauan tempat perindukan nyamuk Aedes sp., mengetahui indikator entomologi, dan mengidentifikasi tingkat resistensi insektisida yang digunakan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi indikator entomologi, keberadaan jentik di tempat perindukan nyamuk, dan resistensi insektisida terhadap jentik maupun nyamuk dewasa. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan potong lintang. Pengumpulan data dilakukan pada tahun 2015 di tiga kabupaten/kota (Padang, Bukit Tinggi, dan pesisir selatan) Provinsi Sumatera Barat. Hasil penelitian untuk indikator entomologi yang dipantau masih dalam kategori sedang. Habitat perkembangbiakan nyamuk yang termasuk controllable containers dengan kontainer positif jentik sehingga berpotensi sebagai sumber penularan sebesar 90,27% dan dispossable containers  yang positif jentik sebesar 9,94%. Insektisida yang digunakan oleh masyarakat, deltamethrin masih menunjukkan hasil rentan dan alphacypermethrin menunjukan toleran, sedangkan malathion, lamdacyhalothrin dan cypermethrin sudah resisten. Hasil uji temephos sebagai larvasida yang digunakan untuk pengendalian jentik sudah resisten terjadi di dua kabupaten yaitu Pesisir Selatan dan Bukit Tinggi. Diperlukan pemantauan berkala di habitat perkembangbiakan nyamuk dan mendorong masyarakat untuk selalu peduli terhadap kebersihan lingkungan. Diperlukan juga mencari alternatif insektisida yang aman untuk masyarakat.

In Bantul, Yogyakarta Special Region there have been reported 6 elephantiasis cases and ware suspected as filariasis. Elephantiasis is classified into two, namely filarial elephantiasis and nonfilarial elephantiasis. Filarial elephantiasis caused by lymphatic filarial worms infection and nonfilarial elephantiasis can be caused by podoconiosis, leprosy, tuberculosis, or chlamydia infection. The aim of the study was to ascertain whether elephantiasis cases are caused by filariasis. Activities carried out in the work area of the Bantul District Health Office in July 2016 i.e.: (1) patient location survey, (2) interviews with patients, their families, and surrounding communities, (3) examination of patients, and (4) observe the environment around the patient's residence to ensure existence of vector mosquito breeding places. This study found two people with elephantiasis, patients from Depok, Gilangharjo, Pandak, Bantul was suspected elephantiasis due to Brugia malayi infection. Patient from Cawan, Argodadi, Sedayu, Bantul was suspected elephantiasis due to podoconiosis. In Cawan found many breeding sites for the Anopheles vagus mosquito.

Aims: This paper investigates the spatial distribution of mosquito breeding sites within the Dakhla oasis of the Western Desert of Egypt. Study Design:  GIS spatial analysis was used to map the area under risk of mosquito proliferation. Place and Duration of Study: Dakhla oases, during September 2009 to October 2010. Methodology: Landsat images, synchronized with mosquito larval survey, were processed to identify the vegetation status of the study area. Twenty-two locations distributed in Dakhla oasis were investigated as nine mosquito species were collected from drains, paddle fields, and waterlogged areas. Results: Results showed that the main vector of Malaria disease (Anopheles pharoensis and Anopheles sergentii), as well as the Culex pipiens, which is the main vector of filarial disease are abundant. Further, the geo-environmental setting and the discharge of increasing cultivated areas develop considerable waterlogging and pond areas, which are favorable breeding sites of mosquito. In Dakhla oases, the produced risk map showed that a large part of urban and cultivated regions were at risk of mosquito spread. Conclusion: It was concluded that mosquito larval populations fluctuated with the dynamics of vegetation cover in Dakhla. Multi-year data of mosquito collections are still required to provide a better characterization of the abundance of these insects from year to year which can potentially provide predictive capability of their population density based on remotely sensed ecological measurements.

Abstract We studied recruitment and dispersal of White-tailed Ptarmigan (Lagopus leucurus) breeding in naturally fragmented alpine habitats at four study sites in Colorado from 1987–1998. Almost all recruitment for both sexes, particularly females, was of birds produced outside local populations and also external to nearby studied populations. Populations were more dependent on female recruitment than on male recruitment to sustain them, and patterns of recruitment were not correlated with local survival of adults or production of young the previous year, except at one site for females. Over 95% of recruits were yearlings. Breeding dispersal of adults, an infrequent but regular event, was also important to inter-population connectivity. Our data for multiple populations allowed us to describe movement patterns among populations to assess consistency with conditions required for a rescue system. After widespread reproductive failure in one year, we expected all populations the next year would have low recruitment due to a reduced supply of recruits produced in the region. Recruitment was low, but impact varied among populations. We conducted an over-winter study of radio-marked offspring to determine possible influences of winter site location and relatives on recruitment patterns. Contrary to expectation, offspring remained on or near breeding sites in winter, but were not located near their mothers or siblings. Recruitment location was related to winter site location. White-tailed Ptarmigan exhibit a well developed capacity for external recruitment that allows them to persist in small populations with stochastic conditions for breeding and survival. Extensive external recruitment may be a general pattern for birds.
