The Effect of Sticky Autocidal Mosquito Trap (SAMT) on the Index of Transovarial Transmission of Dengue Viruses
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a health problem in Indonesia. All areas in Indonesia have the risk of DHF transmission, as the geographical environment condition, temperature and optimal rainfall cause the incubation period of extrinsic disease agent shorter and the pattern of Dengue virus transmission increases. This research aims to prove the effect of Sticky Autocidal Mosquito Trap (SAMT) on the index of transovarial transmission of Dengue viruses in the endemic regions of DHF. This research used a quasiexperimental design, namely Interrupted time series with a nonequivalent no-treatment control group time series. The population and sample in this research were Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in two endemic regions of DHF,namely Sungai Jawi Dalam and Batulayang Villages. There was a decrease into 0% since the 2nd week post intervention until the end of the research (4th week post intervention) in intervention area. However, on the contrary, there was an increase found starting from the 1st week in control area by 200 %, from 3% to 10%.It is concluded that SAMT have significant effect on the decrease in the Index of Transovarial Transmission of Dengue viruses in the endemic regions.
