Abstract
Mosquitoes transmit human diseases, causing millions andmillions of deaths every year Mosquito borne diseases are one of the most serious public health problems in the developing countries. It can be controlled by using repellent, causing larval mortality and the development of resistance to chemical insecticides resulting in rebounding vectorial capacity. Plants may be alternative sources of mosquito control agents. Medicinalplants extracts of Vitex negundo Azadirachta indica and Eucalyptus tereticornis were tested for their larvicidal activity against Culex quinquefasciatus. There are four different solvents were used (Petroleum ether,Ethanol, Acetone and Hexane extract) for the preparation of crude extracts from the plant leaves. The larval mortality of second and third instar larvae C. quinquefasciatus after 24 hour to 48 hour of treatment were observed separately in control,100, 200,300,400 and 500 ppm concentrations of the leaf extract. The seven different solvent extract of Vitex negundo showed good larvicidal activity.
