Abstrak
Scabies is an infectious skin disease that is still often found in environments with high residential density, such as Islamic boarding schools. This disease can cause health and comfort problems, especially for students, so attention needs to be paid to the factors related to its occurrence. This research aims to determine the relationship between environmental sanitation and personal hygiene behavior with scabies symptoms in students at the Ma'had Thalabul Ilmi Islamic Boarding School MTsN 1 Kendari in 2025. The type of research used is quantitative analytical with a cross sectional design. The research population was 128 students, with a sample of 96 respondents taken using proportional random sampling techniques. Research data was obtained through the use of questionnaires and observation sheets, then analyzed using the Chi-square and Fisher exact tests. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between the variables studied: cleanliness of towels and cleanliness of beds and bed sheets with scabies symptoms (p<0.05). Meanwhile, skin cleanliness, cleanliness of hands, feet and nails, cleanliness of clothing, and environmental sanitation did not show a significant relationship with scabies symptoms (p>0.05). The results of this study emphasize the importance of maintaining the cleanliness of personal equipment and bedding as an effort to prevent scabies symptoms in the Islamic boarding school environment
