Abstract The dengue epidemic is influenced by the environment by the number of puddles and containers containing the puddle of rain water that became the breeding ground for Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The larval monitoring activity is useful to increase early awareness of the presence of DHF vectors in the school environment. All the components of the school community and activate the school health program with larva examiner students, in an effort to reduce the cycle of dengue transmissible breeding with empowerment done by increasing knowledge and skills of vector control. This research uses quantitative research with prospective study using experimental quasi design with two group pretest and post test design with inferential causal design. The second stage of entomology evaluation. Data collection was performed by larva monitoring at each school for 6 months. The sample of 108 teachers of the school health business coaches were divided into four groups. Data were analyzed by paired t test and Anova. The free number of larvae was obtained after intervention survey results were highest in group I (88, 9), HI (96, 3) highest group II while CI (43, 13) and BI (0, 68) on group IV. The results of Anova test there are differences in house index, free number of larvae, index container, and breteau index between the research groups. Increased of larva free number can break the life cycle of mosquitoes so that population density and mosquito regeneration will decrease Top Keywords Dengue, COMBI, Behavior, module. Top |
