Penangkapan dilakukan pada malam hari pada jam 18.00 - 06.00 dan pagi hari pada jam 07.00 - 09.00. Semua nyamuk yang berhasil tertangkap diidentifikasi di bawah mikroskop. Bedasarkan penelitian yang telah dilakukan didapatkan nyamuk An.subpictus, An.sundaicus dan An.aconitus dengan persentase (49,5%), (29,4%) dan (14,7%). Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa An.sundaicus, An.subpictus dan An.aconitus memiliki potensi yang besar dalam penularan penyakit malaria.
