The result showed that all the treatments are able to repel this bug. The most effective concentration for all treatment is C4 (20%) for Piper betle, Murraya koenigii, Annona muricata and Pandanus amaryllifolious while for Citrus microcarpa the most effective concentration is C 2 and C 3 (10% and 15%).
