Hence, it raised awareness of their role in breaking the disease transmission. Involving students as supporting team, this activity was carried out at Jemur Gayungan RW 01 by giving public counselling and mentoring for the larvae surveyor cadre (Jumantik).   Abdimas, which has been done, adds to the knowledge of jumantik cadres about the proliferation and spread of dengue, so that jumantik cadres not only observe their environment but can also take action to break the chain of dengue spread.
