- Association Weevil numbers in extract chambers declined as extract concentration increased.
- Observation Leaf powder chambers had consistently fewer weevils, ranging from 2.5 to 3.75.
- Observation Leaf powder gave the least adult mortality, 0.00 to 2.54%.
- Observation Methanol extract caused significant adult mortality ranging from 65.50% to 94.92%.
- Intervention effect More eggs were laid on leaf-powder maize than on extract-treated maize.
- Observation Methanol extract contained more phytochemicals than leaf powder.
- Observation Leaf powder repelled weevils more than methanol extract.
- Observation Methanol extract caused more adult mortality and lower oviposition than leaf powder.
