Identifikasi larva Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus di Kecamatan Pahandut Kota Palangka Raya

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by Aedes spp. mosquitoes. which can be found in tropical and sub-tropical climates. The transmission of dengue fever is closely related to people\u27s daily living habits. Factors that play a role in the emergence of disease are influenced by human factors as hosts and Aedes spp mosquitoes. as a vector for transmitting dengue fever. The breeding place for Aedes spp. can increase the mosquito population in transmitting dengue fever to humans. Research on peat water as a habitat for Aedes spp. larvae. It is very important to do this as an effort to control dengue vectors, especially in areas where the pH of the water tends to be acidic in Palangka Raya City because the larvae of Aedes spp. has the ability to adapt to water that tends to be acidic. This research was conducted using a survey method with a cross-sectional study and experimental laboratory design.Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by Aedes spp. mosquitoes. which can be found in tropical and sub-tropical climates.

EDUKASI PENGENDALIAN NYAMUK SEBAGAI VEKTOR PENYAKIT KEPADA SISWA SMAN 2 PALANGKA RAYA

Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes always cause serious health problems in people. The problems it causes are getting wider because mosquito-borne diseases can increase from time to time. Reducing dengue cases in Palangka Raya City requires everyone's attention, including the role of high school students in helping control both at home, school and in the environment. Students' knowledge is low on the potential for mosquitoes to transmit diseases to humans, so education is needed for students to improve their understanding of mosquito control as a vector of disease. The purpose of this activity is that students can understand how to control mosquitoes to prevent the spread of disease. The success of this activity requires partners, namely SMAN 2 Palangka Raya which is one of the efforts to drive mosquito control at home, school and environment. The method used is morphological education of mosquito larvae, adult mosquitoes, and integrated control methods and therapy for mosquito-transmitted diseases. The knowledge of SMAN 2 students in controlling disease-carrying vectors can be judged successful by increasing students' understanding.  ---  Penyakit yang ditularkan nyamuk selalu membuat permasalahan kesehatan yang sangat serius dalam masyarakat. Permasalahan yang dapat ditimbulkannya semakin menjadi meluas dan serius karena penyaklit tersebut selalu meningkat dari waktu ke waktu. Menurunkan kasus DBD di Kota Palangka Raya maka perlu perhatian semua orang termasuk peran Siswa SMA dalam membantu pengandalian baik di rumah, sekolah ataupun di lingkungan. Kurangnya pemahaman siswa terhadap potensi nyamuk menularkan penyakit pada manusia maka diperlukan edukasi kepada siswa untuk peningkatan pemahaman pengendalian nyamuk sebagai vektor penyakit. Tujuan kegiatan ini siswa dapat memahami cara mengendaikan nyamuk untuk mencegah penyebaran penyakit. Mensukseskan kegiatan ini perlu mitra yaitu SMAN 2 Palangka Raya sebagai upaya penggerak pengendalian nyamuk di Rumah, sekolah dan lingkungan. Metode yang dilakukan yaitu edukasi morfologi larva nyamuk, nyamuk dewasa dan cara pengendalian secara terpadu serta terapi penyakit yang ditransmisikan nyamuk. Pengetahuan siswa SMAN 2 dalam upaya pengendalian vektor pembawa penyakit dapat dinilai berhasil dengan adanya peningkatan pemahaman siswa
