Papaya leaf (Carica papaya) contains secondary metabolite compounds such as terpenoids, alkaloids, saponins and plavonoids. Those compounds have been known as toxic in most insects and have potential to regulate termite Coptotermes curvignathus. This research aims to analyze the potential of Carica papaya leaf as bioinsecticides and to find Lethal Concentration LC50 methanolic extract of papaya on C. curvignathus. The test was carried out by treating paper disc with extract at the concentration 6% 8% 10% w/v (g/ml). The effect of termites has been investigated in seven days and LC50 determined by probit analyze. The bioassay showed that LC50 methanolic extract of Papaya leaf (Carica papaya) an has an effect to Coptotermes curvignathus LC50 4,5%. Keywords—Coptotermes curvignathus, Methanolic extract, Mortality, Papaya leaf.
