The efficacy of different leaf extracts of Chromolaena odorata, Carica papaya, and Ageratum conyzoides were evaluated in the control of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench.) Flea beetles (Podagrica spp.) and to compare the plant extracts with a synthetic insecticide (Deltamethrine). The experiment was laid in the Randomized Complete Block design (RCBD) with five treatments and three replicates. The treatment includes 150g leaf extracts of Chromolaena odorata, Carica papaya, and Ageratum conyzoides, distilled water (control), and a synthetic insecticide (Deltamethrine) as a standard check. The efficacy of the treatments was evaluated based on reduction of okra flea beetles population and percentage defoliation of leaf lamina. The results indicated that leaf extract of Carica papaya significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the population of flea beetles by 20.7% and leaf defoliation by 57.7%, other extracts were better than the control (distilled water). All the plant extracts used were not as effective as the synthetic insecticide (Deltamethrine) in reducing both flea beetles population and defoliation of leaf lamina. Among leaf extracts, leaf extract of Carica papaya was found to be most effective, hence its use by farmers is recommended in the protection of okra against infestation by P. uniforma and P. sjostedii as it is biodegradable and environmental friendly. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench.) is an annual, herbaceous, 0.91-1.83m tall plant with a hibiscus like flower. It belongs to the family "Malvaceae" and order "Malvales". Okra originated somewhere around Ethiopia and was cultivated by the ancient Egyptians by the 12 th century B.C. Its cultivation spread throughout Middle East and North Africa and many parts of the world [1].
