The Fall Army Worm Spodoptera frugiperda is an invasive destructive pest causing great losses in crops. The need for clean, safe and eco-friendly strategy for controlling this pest is the research goal. This study was designed aiming at the evaluation of selected plants extracts as a manipulation for suppressing FAW larvae under laboratory conditions. The plants extracts used in this study were: Ocmimum basilicum, Mentha piperita, Solenostemma argel Del, the botanicals extract and Ziziphus spina comparing with water as control. The parameter used for the assessment of this study was the reduction percentage of FAW larvae population. Results of this study revealed that, all the tested extracts caused mortality for treated larvae after varying days of treatment recording different reduction percentages.
