Background: Central Java Province is one of the regions in Indonesia that has a high number of cases and deaths from dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). The high number of cases of dengue fever is influenced by the potential for mosquito breeding sites, the density of mosquitoes in the area, and the prolonged use of insecticides, which results in resistance.

Objective: This research aims to determine potential breeding sites, mosquito density, and resistance status in Central Java Province.

Methods: The method used is a literature study referring to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Data collection was carried out through Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, Web of Science, and Biomed Central. Search in Indonesian and English. Data identification is carried out by inclusion and exclusion. Data Analysis using Microsoft Excel and ArcGIS.

Results: High potential breeding sites are tank areas for bathroom, bucket, and toilet tub. Mosquito densities from the House Index (HI), Container Index (CI) and Brute Index (BI) are mostly categorized as moderate-high. Only the Cilacap district is classified as low, namely BI. The resistance status of the study area shows that almost all of the study area is resistant to insecticides such as cypermethrin, Malathion, and temephos. Only three areas in the Semarang region are still classified as tolerant, and that is only malation.

Conclusion: The study area in Central Java Province has the highest potential breeding sites, namely tank for bathrooms. The risk of transmission of dengue fever is in the moderate to high category. All study areas in Central Java Province are in the resistant category, except for the Semarang area which is in the tolerant category for Malathion insecticide.
