Methods: An observational analytic study was conducted in two districts in the city of Villavicencio: Quintas de San Fernando and Cedritos.

An estimation was made of aedic indices. Breteau. household and pupae. A survey was conducted to determine attitudes to arbovirus infections. Use was made of descriptive statistics, chi-squared tests and Student’s t-test (r < 0.05).Results: Sixty-seven households were evaluated in two districts. The effective data index was better in areas where access to the Internet was permanent (100 % xu023.9 %). Delivery time was also affected by Internet connection. Significant differences were found between the two districts in the number of positive households for Cgf gu”cgi {rvk(r= 0.0052). as well as in the number of positive ground water tanks (r= 0.0123). Of the respondents. 16.4 % (95% CI. 8.9%-27.5 %) were aware that transmission had been by the bite of CgO’cgi {rvk mosquitoes.
