Online published on 13 November, 2019. Abstract Dengue fever was acute fever disease that could cause the death and caused by four distinct virus serotypes and genus Flavivirus. One of method in restraining Aedes was using larvitraps type (used plastic bottles, used bucket, PM Trap) which had been modified. The primary data on 2018 was obtained Dengue fever case which was equal to 154 larvae on larvitraps type on to plastic bucket as much 63, 96% larvae. The research aimed to know the Influence of larvitraps modification as the monitoring of Aedesa egypti larvae existence at the area of Rajabasa Indah Health Centre Technical Implementation Unit. This research used quasi experiment design with non-randomized pretest-posttest control group design. The research subject was Aedesa egypti larvae. Larvitraps was made of used plastic bottles, used bucket, PM Trap and closed with gauze. Larvitrapswas filled out by water on the third type of larvitraps. The research location was Rajabasa Raya, Gedung meneng and Nunyai Sub district. The research sample as many 18 houses decided by using cluster sampling. The data analysis of univariate and bivariate was with Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis method. The research result showed that Aedes larvae which had been trapping during the research was 154 larvae with 146 larvae spread on larvitraps inside the house and 89 larvae outside the house. The average Aedeslarvae which had been trapping on used plastic bottles larvitraps type was 51, 18 larvae, 63, 96 larvae on plastic bucket and 48, 36 larvae on PM Trap, there are differences between the types of larvitrap used plastic bottles and plastic buckets and between plastic buckets and PM Trap (p value <0.001). It was suggested for society to be able to use larvitraps type of plastic bucket as an easy, cheap and productive vector restraint.
