- Intervention effect Petroleum ether root extract at 0.8% caused complete larval mortality.
- Intervention effect Water root extract at 4% caused 86.6% larval mortality.
- Intervention effect Aqueous root extract at 4% caused 88.0% larval mortality.
- Observation Root extracts ranked above leaf and fruit extracts for efficacy.
- Intervention effect Extracts prolonged larval, pupal and adult periods.
- Intervention effect Extracts reduced pupal weight and pupal and adult emergence.
