Abstract

Dengue Fever (DHF) is an endemic disease caused by the dengue virus with the vector Aedes aegypty. This disease is still a major health problem in Indonesia. Dengue fever often occurs in communities with high levels of pollution, such as dirty and unkempt environments. The increase in dengue fever cases in Indonesia has led many manufacturers to create mosquito repellent products, tools and medicines that can kill mosquitoes with various types of products and brands. However, many products sold on the market can be said to be less environmentally friendly and sometimes not good for health. This community service activity was carried out on February 22 2025. The method used was by giving a pre-test and post-test regarding the community's knowledge of natural anti-mosquito ingredients, followed by socialization, education and production directly with the KKN team. The results of this service show the achievement of an increase in public knowledge about how to make anti-mosquito spray from 10 questions answered "yes" to 60 questions answered "yes", as well as the success of the community in making anti-mosquito spray from lemongrass stalks independently.
