Daftar Isi:
- Malathion thermal fogging has been used for control of Aedes aegypti, a Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) vector since 1972. Inspite of this programme, DHF remains a major public health problem. In an effort to get alternative insecticides for Aedes aegypti, a trial was conducted with Lorsban 480 EC, Icon 25 EC and Malathion 96 EC, utilizing a thermal fog Machine SN II to evaluate the effectiveness of each insecticide. The trial was carried in Kebumen regency, Central Java Province during the months of October and November 1992. Fogging was conducted in 2 cycles with an interval of one week. The result showed that the thermal fogging applications of Lorsban 480 EC, Icon 25 EC and and Malathion 96 EC are able to reduce the indoor population densities of Aedes aegypti and Culex quinqueffasciatus for about 1 and 2 weeks respectively. The percentage number of positive ovitraps and the average number of Aedes aegypti indoors were reduced for about 2 and 5 weeks respectively by applying Malathion and both Lorsban 480 EC and Icon 25 EC.
