(CI), House Index (HI) and Breteau Index (BI) were tested for normality using
Shapiro Wilk, and all were normally distributed (p>0.05), the data were
analyzed using t-paired test. The result of Larva Free Index variable analysis
obtained were p=0.011, CI p=0.000, HI p=0.035 and BI p=0.004. Conclusion:
