N2  - The study aimed to analyze the termiticidal potential of Cascabela thevetia against Micro cerotermes  losbanosensis.         This study was conducted last August, 2018 at University of the Philippines, Los Banos specifically in FPDRI Laboratory, because this place has all the equipment that are needed in the study. The Forest Product Research and Development Institute (FPRDI) was created in 1954 as the Forest Product Laboratory (FPL) under the Bureau of Forestry. It was located, as it is now, in the campus of the University of the Philippines Los  Banos-College of Forestry and Natural Resources (UPLBCFNR).         This study utilized the experimental method of research which focused on the use of standard laboratory diagnostic procedures implicated in termiticidal potential of C. thevetia in terms of mortality rate of the termites upon application of the various treatments.          The methods used were collection and preparation of plant material, the preparations on expressed juice, Delthametrine and the application of the various substances to the termites.          The data gathered were tabulated and computed using One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to determine whether significant difference mortality rate of the termites exist after the exposure to the six treatments. Turkey-Kramer test was used to find out where the difference lies among the six treatments and which among the treatment had the greatest termiticidal potential.           The F-test showed that there was significant difference among the means of the five treatments at 0.05 significant level. The Turkey-Kramer implies that the positive control and 100% leaf extract solution were equally efficient. Therefore, the study found out that the best among the concentration is 100% leaf extract since it is comparable to the positive control.
