    This document outlines the methodology for making an organic insecticide from mahogany leaves, ginger, and water. It details the materials needed, including mahogany leaves, ginger, mortar and pestle, knife, and mesh strainer. It describes the general procedure which involves collecting mahogany leaves from the field and buying ginger from the market, preparing the ingredients by washing, peeling, cutting, and macerating them with a mortar and pestle, straining the mixture, and allowing it to steep overnight. It then notes that testing the extract on 3 cockroaches by spraying resulted in them becoming motionless, trying to escape, and some excreting waste.
