Rice, Oryza sativa L. is the staple food of two thirds of world population. Several insect pests are reported to cause damage to rice crop. Rice case worm, unlike other lepidopteran rice pests, have an aquatic larval period and hence depends on dissolved oxygen in the water drop it carries in its case, made from rice leaf. Application of insecticide spray, does not give much control of this pest. No botanicals are yet reported as effective against this pest. In the present study, six botanicals were tested on rice case worm under laboratory and field conditions. Of the six plants, Anamirta cocculus gave promising results at five percent concentration followed by Glyricida sepium under both field and laboratory conditions.
