ABSTRACT

The aim of the research is to determine the effectiveness of sea mango (CerberraManghas) seeds extract and Papaya (Carica papaya) leaves extract as vegetal insecticide in controlling the vector of Aedesaegyptimosquitos. The experiment was done in the Entomology Laboratory of Health Research and Development Center of Disease Vector and Reservoir (B2P2VRP) Salatiga with 600 adult Aiedesaegyptimosquitos being 3-5 years old with 3 times repetitions. The research design is experimental, using the design of the posttest only controlled group design. The data analysis used was computer (SPSS software) with the probit analysis of one way ANOVA and Least Significance Difference (LSD). The value of LC50 sea mango seeds extract obtained was 1.995% (19.950 ppm) and LC95 of 23.659 (236.590 ppm), while that of the papaya leaves was 3.168% (31.680 ppm) in 100ml of distilled water and 122.202% (1222.020 ppm) in 100 ml distilled water respectively. The one way ANOVA of the sea mango seeds extract showed that it had a significant value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). The result of the LSD showed that there were two groups having significant differences namely the group which concentration was 2.5% with 10% and 2.5% with 20%. There was a significant difference between each concentration of sea mango seeds extract toward the death of Aedesaegyptimosquitos.
