Abstract
Ethanol extracts of six plants materials i.e. bakain drupes (Melia azdarach), habulas leaves (Myrtus communis), mint leaves (Mentha longifolia), bakain leaves, harmal shoots and seeds (Pegnum harmala) and lemon grass roots (Cymbopogon citrates) against rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae L. were tested to determine their insecticidal properties. The results revealed that all of the tested materials with some variations had repellent and lethal effects against the pest as compared with the untreated check. Considering the % mortality of the insect as a main index, bakain drupes proved to be the most effective of these six plant materials, showed 61.2 % mortality, followed by habulas (48.40%), mint (47.40%) and bakain leaves (46.80%), while harmal (16.80%) was found less effective followed by lemon grass (35.20%).
