Daftar Isi:
  • Malaria is a re-emerging disease and became a health problem in Indonesia. Environment is a dominant factor of prevalence and incidence of malaria in endemic areas. Research was done in endemic areas of malaria in East Java Province where in border area namely Tulungagung and Trenggalek. The aim of this study was described the influence of environment factor to malaria incidence in a border areas. This was an observational research with case study design. Area studi were Watulimo and Besuki. Malaria incidence in research areas included on Low Case Incidence (LCI) in Besuki, and High Case lnsidence (HCI) in Watulimo. Temperature, humidity and rain density influenced (chi square test, p<0.05) the multiply of vector. Stay of breeding places supported the living of Anopheles sp. Cattle care with put of stable out dock can changed mosquitos behavior from anthrophilic to zoophilic. Vegetation in research areas was potential as rest places of Anopheles sp. It is concluded that environment is indirect factor to influence mosquito density that cause of malaria incidence. Recommendations can be given are prevent mosquito's bites, spread the predator of Anopheles sp larva on breeding places,reporting the cases to health officer.
