Repelling effects of peach plant Prunus persica L. (Rosales: Rosaceae), Eucalyptus, Eucalyptus globulus L. (Myrtales: Myrtaceae), Ashok, Polyalthia longifolia (Magnoliids: Annonaceae), Milk thistle, Silybum marianum (Asterales: Asteraceae), and Sow thistle, Sonchus oleraceus (Asterales: Asteraceae) extracts each in petroleum ether, acetone and ethanol were evaluated at the concentration of 1000, 500 and 250 ppm against cotton mealy bug (Phenococcus solenopsis) in a free choice bioassay for two weeks. The ethanol extract of Prunus persica was the most effective against cotton mealy bug having highest repellency (72.5%) at 500 ppm dose. The lowest average repellency (26.3 %) was observed in acetone extract of Silybum marianum at 500 ppm dose.
