Botanical pesticides are an important part of sustainable and environmentally friendly agriculture. The aim of this research is to produce herbal insecticide from basil leaves (Ocimum basilicum) without a fermentation process and test its effectiveness in controlling tomato plant pests (Solanum lycopersicum). Basil leaves contain beneficial substances such as eugenol and flavonoids which can be used as an insect repellent. This community service will be carried out in October 2024 in Batulingit Village, Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. Integration of basil leaf products as insecticides before people start producing and applying insecticides to tomato plants.
