ABSTRACT
This research work was carried out on the production of house – hold insect killer. The production was carried out using 250ml beaker, stirrer, a measuring cylinder, sieve, and a thermometer. The chemicals that were used in the formation include: Gasoline, palmkernal oil, crash pepper, soda ash, Aluminioum sulphite and sodium and sodium powder. Many formations were tried using different active ingredients but the most effective of all was. 4 litre of gasoline, 2.0litre palm kernel oil and 1.5kg of soaked soda ash. The efficiency of the product was tested using spider, ants and roaches in the following ways_ direct contact with spiders and spraying the insecticide around the colony of the cockroaches and ants.
