Dengue fever remains a serious public health issue at the international and local levels, particularly in Semarang. Dengue fever can be controlled by Wolbachia bacteria, to suppress Aedes Sp. The SMA Labschool UPGRIS Semarang City students have never received instruction on controlling dengue disease using Wolbachia. This activity aims to increase the pupils' understanding of the issue. Powerpoint slides are used to facilitate discussions and the presentation of material during activities. There were 49 students in attendance. The Pre-Post test is used to measure knowledge. The non-parametric Wilcoxon sign rank test was used for a descriptive and analytical analysis of the measurement results. The findings indicate that 42 students' knowledge (85.7%) grew due to exposure. In the pre-test, students' understanding of dengue fever and how to control it using Wolbachia was, 50% complete (mean 50.6), but in the post-test, it was 80% complete (mean 8). The values before and after the test are significantly different (p-value 0.001). The socializing activities can help students learn more about the dynamics of dengue-transmitting mosquitoes and how Wolbachia bacteria can be used to control them. It is essential to create print and internet informational materials regarding dengue illness and how Wolbachia can treat it.

Dengue Hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is caused by a dengue virus that spreads through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which breeds a lot in densely populated areas with humid and warm climates. Anti-mosquito drugs in the form of burns, sprays, lotions, or other types are already widely used, but these anti-mosquito drugs are not entirely beneficial. This research is purely experimental research with Post-test Only Control Group Design by making air spray solution products from noni leaf infusion and cananga flower, which are analyzed descriptively and analytically. Experiments carried out with Randomized Complete Design 1 time repetition to analyze effectiveness. The study used two factors: treatment (P) using infusion products while the control (K) using distilled water. From the results of mixing, it was obtained as much as 400 ml of infusion solution. Obtained in each measurement, there was a reduction in live larvae until the last measurement. Noni leaf contains five flavonol glycosides (flavonoid compounds) as respiratory poisons and a combination of saponins and tannins as stomach poisons that have the killing power against the death of Aedes aegypti larvae. Cananga flower extract itself can resist mosquitoes because of the content of linalool, geraniol and eugenol. This makes a change in the larvae's behavior, where the previously active movement will be slow and eventually will die.
