Control of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is still being pursued, considering that this disease causes a relatively high mortality rate. Control efforts carry out by suppressing the spread and development of its primary vector, namely Aedes aegypti. The control carried out so far uses chemical larvicides, which can cause various negative impacts. Papaya leafstalk (Carica papaya L.) is suspected to contain phytochemicals that have the potential and effectiveness as biolarvicide to kill Aedes aegypti larvae, but it thus far has never been tested. This study was conducted to test the effectiveness of an ethanol extract of papaya leafstalk (Carica papaya L.) as biolarvicide of Aedes aegypti with 3 treatments, rearing media as the negative control, abate as the positive control, and 6% of ethanol extract of papaya leafstalk (Carica papaya L.). The type of research conducted is experimental with Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The data obtained were analyzed by the Mann-Whitney test at a 95% confidence level. The results of the biolarvicide effectiveness test showed that the use of 0,6% concentration of ethanol extract of papaya leafstalk (Carica papaya L.) was significantly different with an adequate level of 86,2% within 2x24 hours, so it can be concluded that it has high effectiveness when used as a biolarvicide and has the potential to suppress dengue cases.
