Efektivitas Bacillus thuringiensis H-14 Strain Lokal dalam Buah Kelapa terhadap Larva Anopheles sp dan Culex sp di Kampung Laut Kabupaten Cilacap
Bacillus thuringiensis serotype H-14 local strain is pathogenic bacteria which specific target to mosquito larvae. It is safe for mammals and enviroment. The aims of this study was to determine the effectivity of B. thuringiensis H-14 local strain which culturing in thecoconut wates against Anopheles sp and Culex sp mosquito larvae. This research is quasi experiment which consist of treated and control groups. Bacillus thuringiensis H-14 local strain was cultured in 10 coconuts with 6–8 months age with weight around 1 kg that contained were approximately 400-500 ml/coconut were taken from Klaces village, Kampung Laut. After that the coconuts incubated for 14 days in the room temperatur and applied to 6 ponds breeding habitat larvae with the width of samples from 3–100 m2 . The results showed the effectivity of B. thuringiensis H-14 local strain against Anopheles sp and Culex sp mosquito larvae until 1 day after applied the larvae mortalities were 80–100% dan 79,31–100% respectively. Fourteen days after applied were 69,30–76,71% and 67,69–86,04%. Coconut water can be used as alternative local media to culture B. thuringiensis local strain.
