Methods Health education patterns including“raining” ,“irrigating” , “spraying” ,“spring” ,“drop irrigating”patterns were conducted in demonstration zones. Before and after the health education, the questionnaire designed referring to the standard of KAP was carried out in residents and students. The infection rates of parasitic diseases were compared. Results From 2007 to 2009, the health education was conducted to 5 042 900 person?times in 10 dem? onstration plots. The awareness rate of relevant hygiene knowledge was 95.99%, and the rate of hygiene way in their daily life was 98.79% in 2009, which increased by 112.80% and 78.78% respectively when comparing with those in 2007. The average infection rate of STH was 7.75%, reduced by 78.39%; and the average infection rate of Clonorchis sinensis was 6.99%, reduced by 83.13%. Conclusions The strategy of health education in demonstration plots can raise public awareness of relevant hygiene knowledge and improve the practice in hygiene way. The behavior change can lead to the reduction of re?infection of parasitic diseases.
