Abstract
Chlorine residue aims to kill bacteria that are in the water accordance with Permenkes No. 32 of 2017. This study aims to determine the effect of residual chlor on the hatchability of Aedes aegypti eggs with various concentrations. This experimental study was conducted at Entomology Laboratory of Tanah Bumbu Health Research and Development Center in April 2019. Chlorine residual concentrations used were 1 mg / l, 2 mg / l, 3 mg / l, and 4 mg / l with controls. Observations were carried out for 9 days by observing egg hatching in every day. Temperature, pH and humidity are recorded. The results of the study indicate that the calculated value of 0.982 is greater than 0.05, so it can be concluded that the variances of the four treatment and control groups compared were not significantly different. The remaining chlorine used as drinking water and ponds is not able to inhibit the hatching of eggs of Ae. aegypti mosquitoes.
