Abstract
Rotenone, limonine and jojoba oil bioactivity was studied on the 3^rd instar larvae of Culex (Cx.) pipiens pallens as a Bancroftian filariasis vector and the prevalent mosquito in Jizan, KSA. They induced toxic effects on different stages of Cx. pipiens, but in different percent. They revealed Lc₅₀of 13.6, 658.39 and 5991.5 ppm for rotenone, limonine and jojoba oil respectively.
