Results: Factors that have no effect and risk are job variables (ρ-value = 0.501; OR = 1.496; CI95% = (0.620 - 3.605), education (ρ-value = 0.203; OR = 1.962; CI95% = (0,807 - 4,766), income (ρ-value = 0,941; OR = 0,875; CI95% = (0,364 - 2,105), distance of house (ρ-value = 0,110; OR = 2,286; CI95% = (0,933– 5,599) livestock cages (ρ-value = 0.708; OR = 1.308; CI95% = (0.543 - 3.150). Factors that have no effect but are at risk are standing water (ρ-value = 0.056; OR = 2.875; CI95% = (1,072-7,710) While the factors that influence and risk are the use of wire netting (ρ-value = 0.021; OR = 3.267; CI95% = (1.2283 - 8.316), the type of house wall (ρ-value = 0,021; OR = 3,217; CI95% = (1,282 - 8,076), use of mosquito nets (ρ-value = 0,009; OR = 3,754; CI95% = (1,469 - 9,994) using malaria mosquito repellent (ρ-value = 0.020; OR = 3.208; CI95% = (1,288 - 7,990), going out at night (ρ-value = 0,030; OR = 3,143; CI95% = (1,209 - 8,167).
