The research aimed to investigate he toxic nature of Salvadora persica against Tribolium confusum 6 th instar larval and adult stages. Root and leaf extracts effectiveness was determined in terms of mortalities.50% mortalities were obtained with 0.014mL/g and 0.16mL/g of root extracts against larvae and adults, respectively. Whereas LD50 of leaf extracts was found to be 0.012mL/g and 0.12mL/g and 0.16mL/g against larval and adult stages, respectively. In comparison with the untreated control batch the protein contents depletion was observed up to 2% in larvae and 2.63% in adults.
