Hubungan Warna Container dengan Keberadaan Larva Aedes sp. di Desa Bayah Tugu, Kecamatan Bayah, Kabupaten Lebak, Provinsi Banten. = The Association between Container Colours and The Existence of Aedes sp. in Bayah Subdistrict, Banten Province.

Abstrak : Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan masalah kesehatan di Indonesia karena prevalensinya tinggi dan penyebarannya semakin meluas, termasuk di Kecamatan Bayah di mana kejadian luar biasa DBD terjadi pada tahun 2007 dengan 22 penderita dan 1 orang meninggal. Salah satu faktor yang berkontribusi terhadap penyebarannya adalah tempat perkembangbiakan Aedes sp.. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan warna container dengan keberadaan larva Aedes sp.. Pengambilan data dilakukan di Desa Bayah Tugu, Kecamatan Bayah, Kabupaten Lebak, Provinsi Banten pada tanggal 1-3 Desember 2008. Temperatur saat survai paling rendah 24oC pada malam hari dan paling tinggi 35oC pada siang hari dengan kelembaban 90%. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian potong lintang. Survai dilakukan di 100 rumah menggunakan single larval method yaitu diambil satu larva lalu diidentifikasi menggunakan mikroskop. Container dikelompokkan menjadi warna gelap dan terang. Data yang terkumpul dianalisis menggunakan uji chi-square untuk mengetahui hubungan warna container terhadap keberadaan larva Aedes sp.. Dari 100 rumah diketahui house index sebesar 42%, container index 17,2% dan breteau index 58. Tingkat penyebaran DBD di Bayah tergolong sangat tinggi karena House index mencapai > 10%. Sebagian besar larva ditemukan pada container dengan warna gelap seperti abu-abu, hitam, dan merah tua. Pada penelitian ini tidak didapatkan perbedaan bermakna antara warna gelap dan warana terang (p > 0,05). Oleh sebab itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa keberadaan larva Aedes sp. tidak berhubungan dengan warna container.

Abstract : Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a major health problem in Indonesia for high prevalence and its rapid distribution, including Bayah subdistrict, where an outbreak occurred in 2007 with 22 patients and 1 death. One factor contributing to its rapid spread is its vector breeding site. Female Aedes sp. mosquitoes breeds in water containers. The purpose of this study is to identify the association between container colours and the existence of Aedes sp. larvae, the vector of DHF. This cross-sectional study was carried out in Bayah Subdistrict, Banten Province and data was collected from December 1st to 3rd 2008. The temperature at the site of collection ranged from 24oC at night to 35oC in the afternoon with humidity of 90%. We surveyed 100 houses using the single larval method to search for Aedes sp. larvae and then identified using microscope. Containers are classified into dark coloured and bright coloured containers. Classified containers were examined using chi-square to find out the association between container colours and the existence of Aedes sp. larvae. From the analysis we found that the house index was 42%, container index was 17,2% and breteau index was 58. The spread level of DHF in Bayah is classified as very high level since the house index reaches > 10%. Most of the larvae were found on dark coloured containers, such as gray, balck, and red. There is no association between Aedes sp. density and container colours (p > 0.05), thus it was concluded that the existence of Aedes sp. larvae was not associated by the container colours.
