Abstract
Controling dengue hemorrhagic fever vector would be better when the people cound chose their own choice of method such as spraying synthetics insecticide, using abatae as synthetics larvacide, using fish as biological controlled, and using electrical racket as mechanical controller. Besides, using poisonous plant as alternative controlling method was being encouraged. Datura metel is a wild plant from a moutain area, which could not be eaten, easy to grow, cheap, safe and environmental friendly. Lethal concentration 50 towards larvae is 0.60000 µg, and CL 95 to control Aedes aegypti larvae is 1.250 µg. Al Using extract of “daun kecubung” in 2% or 3% or 4% concentration did not have effect as insecticide. Datura metel could be used as botanical insecticide and larvacide, yet it could as traditional remedy for low back pain, flatulent, asthma, rheumatoid, eczema, dermatitis, bone pain, fever, and as pain killer for dysmenorrhea.
