The study to determine the effects of attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with plant extract against Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus under laboratory conditions was conducted. Two-to-five-day-old laboratory-reared Aedes mosquitoes were selected and evaluated with four plant extracts, namely Stemona curtisii Hook. F, Annona squamosa L., Archidendron jiringa (Jack) I.C. Nielsen, and Nicotiana tabacum L. at different concentrations of 1%, 5%, 10% and 20 % (v/v), respectively. The mosquito adulticidal property was assessed after 24, 48 and 72 hours of exposure. Based upon comparisons of mortality rates of Ae. aegypti among these attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with plant extracts after exposure, there was statistical significance at high level (p<0.01). The attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with S. curtisii extract at 10% and 20% concentration were the most effective to all Ae. aegypti tested and the attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with Ar. jiringa at 20% held death rate of 100% after 72-hour exposure. In the same manner, the mortality rate of Ae. albopictus displayed a statistically significant difference at high level (p<0.01). The attractive toxic sugar bait mixed with S. curtisii extract at 20% concentration was the most effective to all Ae. albopictus evaluated, which displayed the death rate of 100% after 72-hours exposure. In this regard, the attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with S. curtisii and Ar. jiringa extracts at 20% concentration could kill more than 90% of both Aedes mosquitoes. Findings from this study suggested that the appropriate form and formula of the attractive toxic sugar baits mixed with plant extracts should be further developed. Besides, the study of lethal concentration of plant extracts which provide >90% mortality rate after 24-hour exposure should be also carried out.
