Resumo: dc.description.abstractMosquitoes are a public health problem in the world. In Mexico, Aedes aegypti is being studied because of its medical importance. Strategies are sought to control breeding sites that do not contaminate and are economical, and health education in school children is explored. The impact of an entomological inspection carried out by school children before and after an educational intervention on the A. aegypti mosquito was evaluated. During the educational intervention, they carried out the inspection in the school to train them. At the end of the workshop, they carried out the first inspection in their homes and the second one a month later. Knowledge of mosquito morphology and the viral origin of Dengue, Chikungunya and Zika was significantly modified. No larvae were found in schools. In the first inspection there are 599 containers and 67 in the second (tanks, drums, cans and buckets). There were 464 containers with larvae in the first search and 55 in the second (tanks, drums, cans and buckets). Four species were found, A. aegypti, A. epactius, Culex coronator and Culex quinquefasciatus. The preferred breeding sites for A. aegypti were tanks and drums. The educational workshop had a favorable impact on schoolchildren's knowledge and was reflected in the reduction of breeding sites.pt_BR
