This study aimed to evaluate the effects of existing practices of residents in reducing pre-adult Aedes aegypti (L.) infestation and to assess the effect of dengue-related knowledge on the practices. A house-to-house survey was conducted in two areas with different socioeconomic status in Ho Chi Minh City between October and November 2007. Some residents in both the areas used covers on the productive containers such as the jars and plastic buckets (i.e., 58% and 81% in the two study areas), and it was effective in reducing Ae. aegypti infestation: odds ratio (OR) of 4.0 and 4.9 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.49-10.76 and 1.2-19.57, respectively) for the containers with inappropriate covers compared with those with appropriate covers in the two areas, respectively. Appropriate cover use was an effective practice; however, no beneficial role of the knowledge related to dengue in promoting the practice was identified.
本研究旨在评估居民现有防控措施对减少埃及伊蚊幼虫滋生的效果，并评估登革热相关知识对这些防控措施的影响。2007年10月至11月期间，在胡志明市两个社会经济地位不同的地区进行了挨家挨户的调查。两个地区的一些居民对水缸和塑料桶等积水容器使用了盖子（即两个研究地区分别为58%和81%），这在减少埃及伊蚊滋生方面是有效的：与使用合适盖子的容器相比，两个地区使用不合适盖子的容器的优势比（OR）分别为4.0和4.9（95%置信区间[CI]：分别为1.49 - 10.76和1.2 - 19.57）。使用合适的盖子是一种有效的防控措施；然而，未发现登革热相关知识在促进该防控措施方面有有益作用。
