Method: The parts of the plants were sampled, dried out and powdered. The powdery parts of the plants were extracted with the help of methanol at room temperature for 3 days, with agitation. The extract was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting methanol extracts were tested against the 4th instar larvae of Aedes aegypti.

Results: About sixty four percent (64.3%) of the tested extracts had moderate larvicidal activity after 24 hours. The leaf extract of Capsicum annuum was the most active at 1000 ppm.

Conclusion: The parts of the plants assayed gave a dissimilar variety of larvicidal potentials, which can be utilized as a control manager for mosquitoes.
