From the information provided by the Don Chan District Public Health Office. Districts with dengue fever rates The highest number of people in Donchan subdistrict was 150.65 per 100,000 population, followed by Sa-adchaisri subdistrict and Na-champa Subdistrict 55.05, 41.57. The research and analysis of the index. Of Donchan subdistrict Sa-adchaisri subdistrict and Na-champa Subdistrict It was found that HI values of two mosquitoes were greater than 10 BI values were greater than 50 and CI values were greater than 1. It was concluded that all three areas were vulnerable to the spread of dengue. In order to cut down the life cycle of mosquitoes, we have devised a device to cut mosquito life cycle. The mesh fabric must be placed higher than the bottom of the container 2 cm. To catch mosquito larvae. And cut the mosquito life cycle. The larvae can trap 14 larvae. And from the study of lure from rice straw and blue light waves in mosquito equipment. The average number of mosquitoes was 41.66.

This is really interesting research, and so important. Did you know that NASA satellite data is being used to help us learn more about the types of environmental parameters; like precipitation amount, temperatures, soil moisture, and such; that can be used to determine if mosquitoes might be most likely to be laying eggs and biting? How were you able to identify the types of mosquito larvae? What did you use to determine the "house quality"? Thank you!
I agree, this is very important research. However, I had some difficulty understanding your report. In particular, I am having trouble understanding the tables. Could you provide some additional explanation?

I am also unclear whether you studied one or two mosquito control devices? Was there one device with a light and another without a light? Or just a single device? And will this device be something that will start to be used in the region to control mosquitos?
First we identify mosquitoes larvae by compare with analyze sheet. and we use Taro yamane table and information from health public office to.
Second there is a single device that with a light, and we use device in our school.
