description | One of the factors that influence the development of mosquitoes is the water container. This study was performed to determine the relationship between the characteristics of water containers and the preferable conditions for laying eggs by Aedes sp. A single larva method was conducted during March 2019 in 300 houses in two villages (Turikale and Adatongeng) at Maros Regency, Indonesia. In total, 1,269 water containers were considered, and among them buckets were found to be the most common container. Logistic regression analysis showed that the type, container location, and weekly drainage were related to the presence of larvae/pupae in the Maros Regency (p-value < 0.05). Non-water containers, which are kept indoors and are not drained at least once a week, have a greater chance of breeding Aedes sp. More attention is given to non-water containers that are located inside the house. Prevention activities, especially draining water containers properly at least once a week ensures that they do not become breeding sites for Aedes sp. mosquitoes and helps to prevent the transmission of dengue viral fever.
HIGHLIGHTS
Potential breeding sites for Aedes sp. at 1,269 water containers in 300 houses at Maros Regency, Indonesia were studied.;
Proportion of larvae/pupae was found the most in dispenser drip trays.;
Relationship between the type of water container, location, drainage frequency of the non-water containers and the presence of larvae/pupae of Aedes sp. (p-value < 0.05) was determined.; |
