KEPADATAN JENTIK NYAMUK Aedes spp DI GAMPONG PEURADA, KECAMATAN SYIAH KUALA, KOTA BANDA ACEH (DENSITY OF Aedes spp LARVAE IN PEURADA VILLAGE, SYIAH KUALA SUBDISTRICT, BANDA ACEH CITY)

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kepadatan jentik nyamuk Aedes spp di Gampong Peurada, Kecamatan Syiah Kuala, Kota Banda Aceh. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan mengunakan metode single larva (survei). Wilayah survei meliputi dusun-dusun yang terdapat di Gampong Peurada yaitu Dusun Setia, Dusun Sentosa dan Dusun Bahagia dengan jumlah sampel yang diambil sebanyak 40 rumah setiap dusun, total sampel sebanyak 120 rumah. Data jentik yang diperoleh dari berbagai jenis wadah yang ditemukan di Gampong Peurada, dihitung kepadatan berdasarkan parameter indeks jentik yaitu House Index (HI), Container Index (CI) dan Bretau Index (BI). Dari hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan didapatkan nilai Density Figure (DF) adalah 3,3 atau pada rentang (2-5) yang termasuk dalam kategori kepadatan populasi sedang. Hasil tersebut didapatkan dari nilai  indeks jentik nyamuk Aedes spp di Gampong Peurada yaitu House Index (HI) : 17%, Container Index (CI) : 10%, Bretau Index(BI) : 27.
