Summary, etc. Filipino communities continue to suffer from various cockroach infestations in which these cockroaches carry allergens that cause varieties of respiratory problems when exposed to. Thus, the need of consumption of commercial bug sprays and other insecticides are also increasing in demand, but this poses another problem: Commercial bug sprays when not disposed properly can toxify the environment as they contain synthetic chemicals, and improper and unregulated use of these sprays can further lead to damages to the body. Currently, previous studies have only managed to concern themselves with more common plants that also have potential to be natural insecticides, but the standard for effectiveness and methods were utilized as a basis for the study. Hence, there was a need to examine the effectiveness of a common household plant, the ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) as a natural insecticide specifically against Turkestan cockroaches (Blatta lateralis) in which the pper aims to introduce a new addition ot other solutions for cockroach infestations. After the experiment, a Kruskal-Wallis test is used with the help of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software to find mean values of the different concentrations treated on the sample of the cockroaches. After the analysis results, the researchers concluded that the ZZ plant has not proven effective as an insecticides. The study recommends that the plant sample should be studied extensively.
