This study aims to determine the relationship between the Health Belief Model (Vulnerability, Frailty, Cues to Action, Benefits and Barriers) with Mosquito Nest Eradication Behaviour. This research was conducted with quantitative research using Cross Sectional, the sampling technique used was Stratified random sampling technique. In the results of this study, one variable was found to be related, namely the benefit variable with the results of chi square analysis obtained a p value of 0.000 (P value ≥ 0.05). The conclusion of this study is that most people in the cipamokolan puskesmas environment have vulnerable, severe, perform actions, are not useful and are hampered by PSN behaviour.
