The study aimed to investigate the effects of the extracts derived from Satureja hortensis, Ocimum basilicum, Cassia angustifolia, Thevetia peruviana, Schinus molle, Melia azedarach on Aphis gossypii Glover. (Hemiptera: Aphididae), and Bemisia tabaci Genn. (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), which are major polyphagous pests. For this purpose, the extracts derived by water from these plants, which were dried and ground to fine powder. Then the extracts applied on A. gossypii and B. tabaci reared on cotton plants via a dipping method. Assessments were done according to counts made before application of extracts and at the 1st, 24th, 72nd and 168th HAA. The extract of T. peruviana with 30.69% had the highest effect on A. gossypii at the 1st HAA. The extract of O. basilicum with 40.67% had the highest effect on A. gossypii at the 24th HAA. None of plant extracts had a significant impact on A. gossypii at the 72nd and 168th HAA. The extract of C. angustifolia had the highest effect on B. tabaci with 50.78% at the 1st HAA. The percentage effects of the extract obtained from C. angustifolia on B. tabaci at the 24th and 72nd HAA were 49.50% and 50.97%, respectively. Consequently, the extracts of O. basilicum, C. angustifolia, T. peruviana were determined as hopeful according to results of the present study.
