Each treatment contained 25 larvae and was observed in 24 hours. The study shows us that an Ocimum sanctum extract concentration of 1,5% was able to kill 36% of larvae, attention of 2% can be able to kill 52%, a concentration of 2,5% was able to kill 68% of larvae, dan concentration of 3% was able to kill 76%. The based engagement was most effective for killing Aedes aegypti larvae at a concentration of 3%.]]>
