Regarding that ethnoveterinary materials were non irritant on rat skin in vitro repellency and contact bio-assay models were used to assess the insecticidal properties of Tagetes minuta, Calpurnia aurea, Clutia pulchella, used engine oil, paraffin and Jeyes fluid on fleas. For the in vitro bioassay T. minuta and Jeyes fluid at 100% concentration demonstrated a repellency level of 76 and 83%, respectively. Tagetes minuta was the most effective among plant materials (p<0.05). Clutia pulchella, C. aurea, used engine oil and paraffin showed insignificant repellency (p>0.05). For the contact bio-assay, C. pulchella, C. aurea and T. minuta at a concentration of 100% resulted in flea mortality of 83.5, 73.3 and 42.5%, respectively. The efficacy of Clutia pulchella compared well with that of Karbadust which had a mean mortality of 97.5%. Paraffin, used engine oil, and Jeyes fluid (19.2%) caused higher flea mortality of more than 82%. In the in vivo study 60 free-range chickens were artificially infested with fleas and test materials were topically applied on infested sites. Test materials exhibited varying flea load reduction efficacy. Used engine oil and Jeyes fluid at 76.8% concentration had a reduction efficacy of 100 and 96% after 3 days post application of test materials. These were not significantly different to that of the positive control Kabadust (carbaryl 5%). The plants C. pulchella and C aurea at 100% concentration had an efficacy of 92 and 77%, respectively. The commonly used remedies by resource-limited farmers to control fleas vary in efficacy. Some of the materials are as effective as the commercial insecticides hence they have a potential to be exploited as insecticides. Further investigations on plant compounds with insecticidal properties and their toxicity, need to be conducted before the plants are recommended for use.]]> Thu 13 May 2021 06:34:06 SAST ]]> Social security and the national orphan care policy in Zimbabwe: challenges from the child headed household https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11417 Thu 13 May 2021 05:32:12 SAST ]]> A socio-economic impact assessment (SEIA) of the best management practices (BMP) project of the Zanyokwe irrigation scheme at farm level https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11190 Thu 13 May 2021 05:17:24 SAST ]]> Condom influence strategies among university students https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11857 Thu 13 May 2021 05:16:24 SAST ]]> An exploration of family group conferencing as part of the diversion experience of young male offenders https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11756 Thu 13 May 2021 05:14:21 SAST ]]> Intergroup conflict in soccer stadiums https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11858 Thu 13 May 2021 05:11:17 SAST ]]> Organisational restructuring and its impact on job satisfaction, career moblity and stress levels of employees at Lesotho Highlands Development Authority https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11648 Thu 13 May 2021 04:46:51 SAST ]]> Potential of sorghum and finger millet to enhance household food security in Zimbabwe's semi-arid regions: a case study of communal areas in Masvingo Province https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11186 Thu 13 May 2021 04:41:30 SAST ]]> An investigation of teachers' perceptions of their professionalism: a case study of three schools in the Butterworth district, Eastern Cape https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16163 Thu 13 May 2021 04:26:58 SAST ]]> Economics of wetland cultivation in Zimbabwe: case study of Mashonaland East Province https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11169 Thu 13 May 2021 04:20:55 SAST ]]> The human resource alignment with the strategic plan 2006-2011 in the Eastern Cape Chris Hani District Municipality with specific reference to the Emalahleni Local Municipality https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11641 Thu 13 May 2021 04:12:20 SAST ]]> Knowledge production in a think tank: a case study of the Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11569 Thu 13 May 2021 03:57:15 SAST ]]> The role of property rights to land and water resources in smallholder development: the case of Kat River Valley https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11189 Thu 13 May 2021 03:56:17 SAST ]]> Urban community development: an understanding of social change and identity in a social housing estate in post-apartheid South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11967 Thu 13 May 2021 03:51:57 SAST ]]> Guilt and shame as intergroup emotions applied within the South African context https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11607 Thu 13 May 2021 02:51:49 SAST ]]> A model for user requirements elicitation specific to users in rural areas https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11130 Thu 13 May 2021 02:29:01 SAST ]]> Determinants of capital structure of small and medium enterprises in the Buffalo City Municipality Eastern Cape Province South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11317 Thu 13 May 2021 02:16:39 SAST ]]> Traditional leadership and the use of cultural laws in land administration: implications for rural women's land rights in a transforming South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11938 Thu 13 May 2021 02:02:31 SAST ]]> Implementating employment equity in the Department of Home Affairs, Transport and Education, Eastern Cape Province https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11548 Thu 13 May 2021 01:59:20 SAST ]]> Implementing an integrated e-government functionality for a marginalized community in the Eastern Cape South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11377 Thu 13 May 2021 01:51:53 SAST ]]> Feeding behaviour of Xhosa lop-eared, Nguni and Nguni x Boer goat genotypes kept on rangelands of the false thornveld https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11811 0.05) on foraging activities among the goat breeds.
