Abstract

Forty four species of plants were extracted with ethanol. The larvaes of the tick (Boophilus microplus) were left to contact with the coating of 1.14 mg/cm2 of crude-extract in bottle. Five crude-extracts of these plants having larvicidal action (90-100% mortality rate) are as follow; Acanthus ebracteatus Vahl., Acrorus calamus L., Annona squamosa L., Luffa acutangula Roxb., and Stemona collinsae Craib. The insecticidal action of these crude-extracts on the adult tick is being test.
