Insecticide resistence study to DHF vector Aedes aegypti was carried out in Kalimantan Selatan Propince. The objective of this study was to map the insecticide susceptibility of Aedes aegypti population to the three chemical groups of insecticide used in public health, in Kalimantan Selatan. Laboratory-reared. F2 generation of  field population of  Aedes aegypti from nine and three Municipalities in Kalimantan Selatan Propinces were used respectively. The susceptibility test were carried qut using impregnated paper base on WHO recommended doses which are 0.8% Malathion and 0,05% cyipermethrin, 0,05% Lambdasihalotrin. The results suggested that population of Aedes aegypti collected from nine municipalities, regencies/cities in Kalimantan Selatan Propince were resistant to Malathion 0.8%, Lambdasihalotrin 0,03% and cypermethrin 0.05%, including Deltamethrin 0.025%. It is important to rotate the insecticides which are used for fogging, especially Malathion.

Malaria is one of contagious disease which is still a crucial matter in Indonesia. Malaria disease control is being done by decreasing the number of malaria case gradually. South Kalimantan is one of high malaria prevalence province. Malaria cases occur nearly every month with significant raise of malaria occurence on May, October to July. This research intend to know the effect of rainfall, temperature and humidity on to occurence of Malaria case. This is a descriptive research, using secondary data of rainfall, temperature and humidity from Meteorology and Geophysics Board of Banjarbaru and Malaria case of Tanah Bumbu District data within 10 years term. This research shows that rainfall does effect the occurence of Malaria. Temperatur  and humidity does effect the occurence of Malaria. This result showed that rainfall does effect raise of mosquito density. Temperature does effect on mosquito density at 26,5 – 27 degree celcius. Humidity does effect on mosquito density at 85-87 percent. This research concludes that climate variable change does not directly effect raise of case.
