Alcohol extract, saponins and flavones fractionated from Dodonaea viscosa leaves were tested for their acaricidal activity against the adult females of Tetranychus urticae Koch. It was found that crude alcohol extract was more potent than the isolates obtained. At LC₅₀ and LC₉₀ levels, the crude extract ranked the first. All the biotic factors are significantly affected. The fecundity was seriously reduced however, the hatchability of eggs was not affected. Two flavonoids were identified as Querectin 3–0-glucose 7-0-rhamnoside and the other as Querectin 3-0 arabinose 7-0 rhammoside from the ethyl acetate fraction of the alcohol extract.
