The data was collected using a questionnaire composed of 5 parts including. Demographic data, knowledge, attitude, factor related to the project and suggestion. Descriptive statistics such as percentage, mean and standard deviation were used to describe the data. Analytical statistics were used to analyze the relationships for variables by person’s product moment correlation analysis. The results showed that all participants were Buddhists and the majority of people participating were women (66.2%) with aged between 35 to 39 years old (42.2%). Primary education level was 80.4%. Knowledge and Attitude related to the project were 82.10% and 80.07%, respectively. Satisfaction level was very good (76.35%).

The result also found that the correlation coefficients of personal characteristics; gender, age, education, occupation, and income were not associated with the project. (r = -.068, .035, .027, .015, and -.154, respectively) While the correlation coefficient of familiarity with the project’s staff was very low for relation. (r = .156) In addition, the correlation coefficient of attitude was related to satisfaction of project. (r =.577) It would be useful to measure the public's satisfaction to the project and the information could be used as a guide to expand the network control of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever and studies should be compared to the effectiveness of using betel nut chalk to prevent Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) in the future.
