ABSTRACT
This research work was carried out on the production of house – hold insect killer. The production was carried out using 250ml beaker, stirrer, a measuring cylinder, sieve, and a thermometer. The chemicals that were used in the formation include: Gasoline, palmkernal oil, crash pepper, soda ash, Aluminioum sulphite and sodium and sodium powder.
Many formations were tried using different active ingredients but the most effective of all was. 4 litre of gasoline, 2.0litre palm kernel oil and 1.5kg of soaked soda ash.
The efficiency of the product was tested using spider, ants and roaches in the following ways_ direct contact with spiders and spraying the insecticide around the colony of the cockroaches and ants.
The result obtained shows that it is very effective by killing the insects (spider) instantly, while it took time to kill the cockroaches when sprayed. This insecticide has little or no effect on the environment.

INTRODUCTION
The health of man is always his concern after food. Everyday by day, research is carried out to improving the health of man. The major problem facing man today is disease and most of these diseases are caused by insects of different kind eg mosquitoes, tse-tse fly, beetle etc. mosquito carries the disease pathogern of malaria and malaria has killed many in the world in general.
In this, the need for insecticide came up 100 BC ago. Insecticides are materials used in destroying insects and related animals. They are categorized according to their action.
Recent discoveries of new synthetic insecticides led to major advances in insecticide technology. Insecticide can be organic or inorganic and they have different ways of action, such as stomach poisoning, residual poisoring, furnigants, repellants, systemic poisoning. Stomach poisoning are applied to the plants and as the insect chew the leaves, the insecticide is ingested. Contact poisoning is applied directly to insects and is used principally to control species which obtain food by piercing leaf surfaces and withdrawing liquids. Residual poisoning is applied to surface so that insects touching them will pick up lethal dosages. Replants prevent insects from reaching their host. Insecticides have different ways of formation and application eg dust, water suspension, emulsions and solution depending on the method of application. Insecticides are made to be friendly to the environment.
House-hold insects like mosquitoes, spiders, roaches etc ae destructive and that is why this research work is made to produce an insecticide that will kills these insects and will not harm cause harm to other organisms.
In addition, when the permissible concentration is not exceeded then the insecticide if friendly to the environment. An insecticide that does not cause fire hazard, corrosion, reaction or explosion and toxicity to untargeted objects on application is also friendly to the environment.
The insecticide produced should conform to the amendments in the federal insecticides fungicide and pestricide Act of 1972 and that of federal environment protection agency act of 1994. These Acts is that it should be effective and friendly to the environment.
- RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
From our findings, we discovered that most of the synthetic insecticides to be more precise DDVP is environmentally unfriendly – it can affect other objects that is not made for it. Hence the need to develop insecticide from natural source cannot be over emphasized. A research on gasoline and active ingredient is to be carried out. we restricted our research to gasoline having the ability of killing or scaring insect without attacking the object.
Nevertheless, the research project has made us to succeed in producing an insecticide from gasoline has little or no effect on the environment. In addition, the insecticide produced can serve as preservatives in timber by preventing the breed of termites on the logs. The insecticide is sourced from natural oil which developed a pesticide action on living organisms.
From our findings, it was observed that although the insecticide
