This study aimed to evaluate the use of ovitraps to monitor the entomological indices of <em>A.</em> <em>aegypti</em> and verify if the traps contribute to reducing dengue cases in Ibirité, MG. The traps were made using a medium plant pot, a wooden pallet, a clip and <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em>. It was installed one trap every 15 days and, over three years (2019, 2020, 2021), resulted in 32 traps, distributed in the houses of 12 districts of Ibirité. After seven days of permanence, they were collected for eggs counting. A total of 60.433 eggs of <em>A. aegypti</em> were included in the Municipality, with the highest number observed in the Durval de Barros neighborhood. In 2019, 13.455 eggs were captured from January and May and between September and December. The IPO in the neighborhoods ranged from 9% to 54%, with the IDO ranging from 2 to 45 eggs. In 2020, 17.301 eggs were recorded, mainly from January to March and between October and December. The IPO in the neighborhoods ranged from 36% to 90% with the IDO ranging from 19 to 107 eggs. In the year 2021, there were 29,677 eggs between January and November that year, with the highest capture between January and March. The IPO was or higher for the three years of validity (70 to 10%), allowing us to infer that the traps help in the fight against dengue.</p>}, journal={Uningá Review }, author={Pereira, Leonardo de Paula and Teixeira, Caio Wilker and Rodrigues, Matheus Felipe dos Reis and Marteleto, Natielle Cerceau and Silva, Sara Iolanda Alves da and Pujoni, Diego Guimarães Florencio and Casteluber, Marisa Cristina da Fonseca}, year={2022}, month={Oct.}, pages={eURJ4418} }
