The larva monitoring cadre (Jumantik) is a working group for the eradication of dengue hemorrhagic fever at the village level within the Village Community Resilience Institution, which is actively expected to influence reducing the number of dengue cases. According to data from the Dalduk Health Office and KB Tanjungpinang City in 2020, there were 360 cases with a larva-free rate of 83,00%, far from the national larva-free rate (ABJ) of 95%, thus triggering the high incidence of DHF. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes and motivation of jumantik cadres on larva free numbers. The research method used is a quantitative method with a cross sectional study design. The sample in this study was 41 respondents using total sampling technique and analyzed by Chi-square analysis. The results of the study from 41 respondents showed that 24 respondents had low knowledge (58,5%), 21 respondents were good (51,2%), 29 respondents were less motivated (70,7%) and 28 did not meet the requirements for larva free numbers (68, 3%).
