- Intervention effect The 0.5 ml extract treatment had 7.5 eggs laid versus 20.8 with Dichlorvos.
- Intervention effect The 1.0 ml extract treatment had 8.0 eggs laid versus 20.8 with Dichlorvos.
- Intervention effect The 1.5 ml extract treatment had 11.8 eggs laid versus 20.8 with Dichlorvos.

- Association Contact toxicity was dose dependent under the root extract treatments.
- Association Mortality was dose dependent under the root extract treatments.
