Abstract:
This study examined the effects of fresh crude extract from 215 plants on the mortality rate of third-instar larvae of Aedes aegypti after a 24-hour exposure. Twenty five plants demonstrated a high mortality rate (up to 80%) at five different concentrations. The LC50, LC90, and LC95 values of the tested plants showed that 15 plants were with 100% larvicidal potential. Stemona tuberosa showed the highest efficacy against Aedes larvae having LC50 = 3.78, LC90 = 7.51, and LC95 = 7.97, while Jatropha gossypifolia showed the lowest efficacy i.e., LC50 = 6.58, LC90 =11.23, and LC95 = 11.31.

DHF as vector-borne disease become a problem in the world. The most effective way for suppressing the incidence is killing the vector, Aedes aegypti. One of the ways is using a natural insecticide, local Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). The study aimed to determine the efficacy of local Bt against Aedes aegypti larvae. The study was conducted by using an experimental design with 1.250 3rd and 4th instar larvae Aedes aegypti as a sample. The study consist of 19 groups, 6 groups of local Bt from Curugdago, 6 groups of local Bt from Setiabudi, 6 groups of Bactivec&reg; (commersial Bt), and a group wi
