Rhipicephalus (B.) microplus or common cattle tick is considered the most important ectoparasite of livestock. Traditional and repetitive control of this tick through the use of conventional products has become a serious problem regarding tick’s resistance. For this reason, biological control has emerged as a very promising alternative to control this tick. In the present study, an experiment was designed to assess the effect of plant extracts of J. curcas y A. muricata on Production eggs Index (IPH) and estimated reproduction (ER) of R (B) microplus under laboratory conditions. Each plant extract was assessed in five different concentrations (between 0.1 and 5%); a positive and negative control was used for comparison. Both plants showed biological activity, however, A. muricata showed significantly effect on engorged females of the cattle tick compared with J. curcas , even at lower concentrations (0.5, and 1 %). In conclusion, the results obtained indicate that A. muricata’ s seed extracts are promissory to biocontrol the common cattle tick under laboratory conditions.
