Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Aloe vera extract as a Culex sp larvicide.
Methods: This study used experimental post-test only one group design, for to the results of study used by probit analyzed to assessed toxicity. The experimental animals used are Culex sp (species) instar III/IV with 700 total samples larvae, and each treatment contained 25 larvae with 200 ml of water. The study was conducted with seven treatments including extract concentration used are 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 part per million (ppm), negative control (water), and positive control (abate®1 ppm), with the different observation times 180, 360, 540, 1440, and 2880 min.
Results: This study which showed lethal concentration median % at 68.8 ppm concentration with 1440 min observation time.
Conclusion: The results obtained in this research work that the extract of A. vera has larvicidal against instar III/IV Culex sp larvae.
