Abstract

Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of dengue fever, which has been a significant public health issue in Thailand from the past to the present. There are initiatives to use plant-derived compounds as an alternative to manage mosquito vectors. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of hexane and methanol crude extracts from cannabis residues on Aedes aegypti larvae in the third and fourth instars at different concentrations (0, 125, 250, 500, and 1,000 mg/L), and mortality at 24 was observed. It was revealed that Cannabaceae residue hexane extract exhibited the highest larval mortality (98.00%) with median lethal concentrations to kill 50% (LC50) of the treated larvae in 24 hour of 13.120 mg/L. Meanwhile, Cannabaceae residue methanolic extract displayed 88.00% larval mortality with LC50 of the treated larvae in 24 h of 67.059 mg/L. There was no significant difference in the mean total mortality of Ae. aegypti between the two solvents (p ≥ 0.05). Consequently, crude extracts of Cannabaceae residue would be used in the future to control Ae. aegypti larvae and other insects of medicinal and veterinary interest in risk regions.
