House cricket, Acheta domesticus (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) is a significant domestic insect nuisance worldwide. Crickets are considered pests because they consume the fabric and fibers of clothes and carpets, resulting in damage and roughening the surface. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of botanical extracts in comparison with insecticides on house cricket (A. domesticus). Five different concentrations of botanical extracts Ricius communis (castor), Moringa oleifera (moringa), and Azadirachta indica (neem), alongside insecticides cypermethrin, deltamethrin were used on filter paper in petri dishes and allowed to air dry at room temperature for 5 minutes. The 20 adult house crickets were released on treated filter paper in each petri dish. To acquire reliable findings, the procedures were replicated three times and one control. Mortality data was recorded after 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours and a comparison of the mean of each treatment was compared using the ANOVA technique under a completely randomized design (CRD). Tukey HSD test was used for means of significant treatment at 5%. In this study, cypermethrin has the highest mortality 81.67% followed by deltamethrin 76.67%, A. indica 75%, R. communis at 68.33% and M. oleifera extract has the lowest mortality 58.33% after 96 hours of treatment. Cypermethrin had the highest mortality rate, hence it was proven to be most effective against house cricket.
