Many public health-related problems, such as dengue diseases, are caused by the vector Aedes aegypti. This paper’s objective is to develop larvicidal activities against the larvae of Ae. aegypti. Standard methods were utilized for the collection, extraction, and phytochemical screening of the plant parts and extracts. Different extract concentrations were tested against the larvae of Ae. aegypti mosquitoes. The different toxicities observed were due to changes in the compounds present in each of the plant extracts. Seven phytochemical constituents were detected for plant extracts. Nigerian medicinal plants could be used to curb the spread of the dengue vector, Aedes aegypti.
