This repellent activity was conducted with inserting the hand alternately between treatment and control into test cage repellent each containing 50 mosquitoes. It was about 3 hours treatment with observation for 5 minutes at each intervals of 1 hour. The oil concentration used were 1%, 3%, 6%, 12,5% and 25% with DEET 13 % as a positive control and distilled water as negative control. The Observation data was any concentration of power protection essential oil. Analysis of the data has been using by one – way ANOVA test (p= 0,000), followed by a different average Tukey HSD with α = 0,05 (p= 0,000). Effective dose value (ED50) for protection against Aedes aegypti by 50% was calculated by probit analysis. The result of this study was the frangipani oil has a potential effect as repellent to Aedes aegypti with ED50 of 1,3357%. The higher concentration will increase the potential repellent, where as the longer it will reduce the potential repellent treatment.
