Papaya leaves (Carica papaya L.) contain saponin and flavonoid compounds where these compounds can cause the death of pests.  Aim: This study aims to formulate it in pesticide preparations and then evaluate it so that it can be seen that the concentration of pesticide preparations is good  Method: This type of research is experimental in the laboratory by making 3 formulas consisting of F1 with a concentration of 8% papaya leaf extract, F2 12% and F3 16%. The tests include organoleptic, homogeneity and pH.
