Larvicidal Effects of Plant Extracts on Mosquitoes by Mohit Sethi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study investigates the larvicidal effects of leaf extracts from Azadirachta indica, Ocimum gratissimum, and Hyptis suaveolens on Culex mosquito larvae. Results indicate that A. indica and O. gratissimum are effective larvicides, achieving 100% mortality at certain concentrations, while H. suaveolens showed minimal effectiveness. The findings suggest the potential use of these plant extracts as environmentally safe alternatives to synthetic insecticides for mosquito control.
