Mosquitoes are responsible for transmitting various infectious diseases; hence, mosquito has been declared as ‘Public Enemy Number One’. Mosquitoes belonging to the genera Anopheles, Culex and Aedes are the vectors for the pathogens of different diseases such as malaria, filariasis, and other different fevers. The study aim to run a field application of the dried Henna (Lawsonia inermis) leaves, Ginger (Zingiber officinale) rhizome and chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum) fruit, in order to control Anopheles and Culex larvae and to determine the impact of these applications on some of the aquatic natural enemies. Plant samples were brought from Wad Medani City local markets. Each of the plant samples was shade dried under room temperature, crushed and kept in plastic bages away from the direct sunlight. A weight of 1g plant powder/10 L stagnant water was added to the mosquito larvae breeding sites at Albohouth sites, Wad Medani, Gezira State. The count of each of Anopheles and Culex larvae, in addition to some aquatic predators (swimming beetles, dragonfly naiads, hemipteran boatmen, mayfly nymphs and tadpoles) were recorded before applying the plant materials and every day (till the larvae became pupae). The results showed that, a decrease in the numbers of the Culex larvae from (94 to 16; 83% mortality), and Anopheles larvae from (42 to 2; 95% mortality) when the Ginger rhizome was used. When chilli pepper was used, it decreased Culex larvae from ( 98 to 17; 82% mortality) and Anopheles larvae from (23 to 6; 73% mortality). Henna leaves decreased Anopheles larvae from (32 to 7; 78% mortality) and Culex larvae from (85 to 12; 86% mortality). It was also observed that, during these tests, aquatic predators were killed, but either one to maximum three individuals throughout the study. The study concluded that, aqueous extract of henna leaves was relatively more toxic to Culex larvae, whereas ginger rhizome was relatively more toxic to Anopheles larvae. Also, aquatic predators did not affected greatly with these plant products. The study recommend continuing screening and evaluating of natural producs
