“…They found that the acqueous extract of these plants not only caused the mortality of tested termites, but also showed an important repellency to them. The repellent effect of extracts from few tropical plants on termite has also been reported by Maistrello et al (2011), Osipitan et al (2013) and Acda (2014).…”

Termites are most pestiferous insects causing damage to crop and buildings. Their control still relies mainly on harmful chemical pesticides to the detriment of eco-friendly pesticides. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of three plant extracts on the survival rate of termite species, Macrotermes subhyalinus Smeathman and Trinervitermes geminatus Wasmann, known to cause damage to crops, vegetation and buildings in Togo. Cissus quadrangularis (Vitaceae), Pennisetum purpureum Schumach (Poaceae) and Vetiveria zizanoides Nash (Poaceae) extracts were examined for their termiticidal activity against these termites. Three formulations including acetone and hexane extracts and powder were prepared for each plant species at five different concentrations. Six replicas were made for each tested concentration with 30 workers per replica in the laboratory conditions. All the tested plants showed termiticidal activities by reducing the rate of survival duration of tested termites. The powder of V. zizanoides was very effective on M. subhyalinus; its lowest concentration (5 mg/cm 2 ) reduced the survival rate of this termite by up to 87%. Among the extracts, acetone extract of P. purpureum caused the highest reduction of M. subhyalinus survival rate at higher concentration. Both acetone and hexane extracts of V. zizanoides were very effective on T. geminatus, reducing by more than 90% survival rate of this termite. Although these plants extract seem to bear potential termiticidal activity, however, further studies need to be carried out in order to determine their respective components.

“…By this way, many plants have been recognized to have anti-termitic activities such as Ruta graveolens or Cuminum cyminum, Annona squamosa, A. muricata, Rollinia mucosa, Rhazya stricta, Lantana camara, Ruta chalepensis, Heliotropium bacciferum, Dodonaea viscosa, Eucalyptus globules, lemon grass, clove bud and vetiver grass (Zhu et al 2001;Ahmed et al 2011;Acda 2014;Alshehry et al 2014;Nisar et al 2015). Extracts of some tropical plants including Antiaris toxicaria, Picrasma javanica, Eugenia caryophyllata, Piper cubeba, and Cymbopogon wintwrianus have also been reported to have repellent effects to subterranean termites (Prianto 2010;Setiawan et al 2010).…”

Abstract. Indrayani Y, Muin M, Yoshimura T. 2016. Crude extracts of two different leaf plant species and their responses against subterranean termite Coptotermes formosanus. Nusantara Bioscience 8: 226-231. Crude extracts of plants consist of various chemical compounds useful for many purposes and their effectiveness depend on the comprising active ingredients and applied concentrations. This study was conducted to determine the chemical compounds of plant leaf extracts and examine their responses against subterranean termite Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki. Two tropical plant species [clove (Syzygium aromaticum) and cajuput (Melaleuca leucadendra)] were extracted with 70% ethanol solvent. As the two different plant crude extracts contain eugenol, though to have termiticidal performance, various concentrations (0.1%, 0.05%, and 0.01%) based on their eugenol contents were prepared with filter paper samples for the test. The termite mortality and mass loss of extract-treated and untreated control filter paper samples were determined after four weeks exposure. Results showed that crude extracts of different plant species showed different responses against the subterranean termites although they were applied at the same eugenol-based concentration. At the concentration of 0.1%, the crude extract of S. aromaticum caused termite mortality and consumption rates of 100% and 0.3%, respectively. Whilst, the crude extract of M. leucadendra caused significantly lower termite mortality (36.8%) and higher consumption (9.1%). Samples with lower eugenolbased concentration showed lower termite mortality and may have attractive effects on termites as indicated by higher consumption at the concentration of 0.01% compared to untreated controls. These results suggested that crude extracts of different two leaf species had different effects on subterranean termite C. formosanus eventhough they were applied at the same eugenol-based concentrations.

“…Pestisida nabati resikonya kecil bagi kesehatan dan lingkungan hidup. Beberapa teknik yang umum digunakan untuk memproduksi pestisida nabati diantaranya dengan teknik merendam, mengekstrak atau merebus bagian tertentu dari organ tanaman yang mengandung insektisidal tinggi (Al-Fifi 2006;Morya et al 2010;Acda 2014). Jenis insektisida nabati yang sudah lama dikenal dan digunakan adalah piretrium yang diambil dari bunga Chrysanthenum.…”

Pengendalian Hama Terpadu, memberi ruang dan hak kehidupan bagi semua komponen biota ekologi, tanpa terjadinya kerusakan pada tanaman yang dibudidayakan. Sasaran pengendalian hama terpadu adalah mengurangi penggunaan pestisida dengan memadukan teknik pengendalian hayati dan pengendalian kimiawi. Pada tahun 1986 Pemerintah mengeluarkan Instruksi Presiden Nomor 3 Tahun 1986 yang menjadi Tonggak sejarah PHT di Indonesia, diawali dengan instruksi presiden nomor 3 tahun 1986 tentang larangan penggunaan 57 formulasi pestisida untuk tanaman padi. Perkembangan selanjutnya adalah UU No 12 Tahun 1992 tentang sistem budidaya tanaman yang menyatakan bahwa “ Perlindungan tanaman dilaksanakan dengan sistem Pengendalian Hama Terpadu (PHT).Pengendalian hama pada tanaman kedelai hingga kini masih tertumpu pada penggunaan insektisida, cara pengendalian yang lain masih belum banyak di lakukan. Penggunaan insektisida secara berlebihan berdampak timbulnya resurgensi hama sasaran, dan pencemaran lingkungan pertanian, sehingga Pengendalian Hama Terpadu (PHT) perlu di lakukan Pengendalian Hama Terpadu pada tanaman kedelai merupakan teknik pengelolaan keseimbangan lingkungan pertanian melalui ekologi dan efisiensi ekonomi dalam rangka pengelolaan ekosistem yang berwawasan lingkungan yang berkelanjutan. Strategi PHT adalah mensinergikan semua teknik atau metode pengendalian hama dan penyakit yang kompatbel didasarkan pada asas ekologi dan ekonomi. Prinsip operasional yang digunakan dalam PHT adalah 1) Budidaya tanaman sehat, 2. Penyeimbangan komponen ekobiota lingkungan, 3) Pelestarian musuh alami, 4) Pemantauan ekosistem secara terpadu, 5) Mewujudkan petani aktif sebagai ahli PHT.
