- Abstract
Plant-based insecticides are single active ingredients derived from plants that can be used to control house flies (Musca domestica). One of the plants that can be used as a Plant-based insecticide is cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum burmannii) extract. House flies (Musca domestica) are a vector of various diseases related to the digestive system, such as diarrhea. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum burmannii) extract in producing aromatic candles as a repellent against house flies (Musca domestica) in preventing diarrhea in Kendari City. The research method used was a pure experiment with a Post Test Only Control Group Design research design. The research began by applying cinnamon bark extract to aromatic candles with five different concentrations, namely 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%. The number of dead flies observed after 6 and 12 h of treatment was recorded for each concentration. The results were data analysis processed using the probit test to obtain the LC50 value and the ANOVA test to test the differences between treatment groups. Based on the probit test, the LC50 value was 2.522. The ANOVA test obtained a p-value of 0.406, indicating no significant difference in dead flies between the treatment groups.
