Abstract

The results of research on the market show that there is a relationship between container conditions and the presence of larvae with a value of p = 0.000, there is a relationship between the frequency of draining with the presence of larvae with a value of p = 0.003, there is a relationship between waste management with the presence of larvae with a value of p = 0.000 in Panakkukang market. Based on the results of this study it can be concluded that the density of Aedes sp. larvae in the market can be influenced by environmental sanitation conditions.
