It is estimated that every year at least 500 million people in the world suffer from one or the other

tropical diseases that include malaria, lymphatic filariasis, schistosomiasis, dengue,

trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis. Of late chikungunya, a serious mosquito borne epidemic has
gained momentum in India. One to two million deaths are reported annually due to malaria
worldwide.

Capsaicin is a natural chemical isolated from chili pepper. It is most often found in animal
repellents but some products kill mites and insects or keep them from feeding on plants. It is
important to note that capsaicin containing products are primarily used to repel insects.

According to Hoyt(2017), Capsaicin is considered an environmentally sound way to avoid the

contamination of food and drinking water by the residue of synthetic agrochemicals. Capsaicin is
applied to plant foliage to repel insect pests, not kill them. It will also repel bees and other insects
needed for pollination and other purposes. Capsaicin is used both outdoors and indoors to repel
aphids, lace bugs, leafhoppers, spider mites, thrips, white flies and other insects. Applying
capsaicin on vegetables and fruits is a useful way to prevent insects from laying their eggs;
preventing insects from reproducing limits their damage to leaves, fruits and vegetables.

Because of the antimicrobial capacity of the capsaicin, Walter (1995), for the first time, suggested a
protective medium that contains capsaicin, as a base component in the product that belongs to the group of
biochemical pesticides. From 1995 onwards, a lot of products have been registered in the EPA
(Environmental Protection Agency, USA), insecticides and rodenticides based on capsaicin. In the end of
2001, the EPA registered around 195 active materials as biopesticides and 780 products. Biopesticides are
natural substances made from herbal extracts or from pheromones from insects, which in the control of the
pests have no toxic effect. Capsaicin belongs to the third class of biopesticides. It is important to note that
capsaicin-containing products have primarily been used to repel insects since ancient times. Literature
survey has revealed that capsaicin has lethal and antifeedant effects on various invertebrates, which is
another reason why organic farming is directed toward the production of biopesticides.

G.F Antonious, J.E. Meyer, J.A Rogers and Y. Hu (2007) farmers around the world provides a
pesticide that can be used to exclude the number of pests and insects. Pepper (annum) as organic
pesticides has a feasibility to control the highest quantity of pests and to have a highest rate of crop
production. Consequently, it can help to the quickly growth of fibers and plants. Today, chili
pepper (capsicum annum) grow widely in many parts of the world as an important commercial
crops that can be tested to produce an organic pesticides without bad effect to the health of the
people and also that is eco-friendly.

According to Romano (nd) chili is sharply flavored fruit of a pepper plant that can be experimented
as pesticides. Insecticidal chili pepper (capsicum annum) has a potential to diminish the number
of termites that destroys furniture or anything made of wood and also other insects pests. On the
other hand, chili pepper (capsicum annum) as everyone knows it, is a favorite spice of many people
around the world including the Philippines. In contrary, chili (capsicum) also contains a natural
facts and health benefiting properties that can be used as functional medicines. Regardless of its
spicy taste, it is very practicable to conquer LDL cholesterol levels in obese individuals. Chili
pepper (capsicum annum) has amazingly high levels of vitamins and minerals.
