  • The presence of flies around human beings cause uncomfortable, it gives an image of unhygienic environment, which generate health problems. Fly control by synthetic insecticide obviously generate environmental problems since it is not naturally absorbed. Several research showed that fly resistance to insecticide increased from time to time in most places around the world. The objective of this research was to find an alternative insecticide for Musca domestica control, that is safer and less dangerous for the environment. The insecticide effect of five leaves extracts: Melia azedarach (mindi), Nicotiana tabacum (tembakau), Ageratum conyzoides (babadotan), Datura metel (kecubung) and Pangium edule Reinw (pucung) were tested for Musca domestica. The research was experimental type using post test only with control group design. In this experiment five percent of sucrose solution containing each extract was provided as the bait for this fly. The average values of flies killed during 24 hours and residual age were analysed descriptively and analyticly. Statistical analysis were Anova-test and LSD-test with 95% significance level. The showed that LC90 of M. domestica on babadotan, kecubung, mindi, pucung and tembakau extracts were 67,59%w /v, 27,03%w /v, 79,04%w/v, 160,09%wv, 9,56%w /v respectively. Anova-test for 24 hours observation showed differences killing averages value on every extract, except for the first hour. Effective residual age was about 2-3 days. Based on the observation for all extracts, tembakau extract was the most effective botanical insecticide for this fly. Keywords: Musca domestica, insecticide, plant extracts
