Chili pepper plants (Capsicum frutescens) are one of the commodities with high economic value, so they need to be continuously developed. In addition, chili peppers have good antioxidant activity and a relatively high content of phenols and capsaicinoids. However, chili production often faces challenges, including attacks from plant-disturbing organisms (OPT), especially fruit fly pests. Fruit flies (Bactrocera Sp.) are one of the important pests of horticultural crops, particularly on fruits and vegetables, including chili. The objectives of this research are to determine the effectiveness of methyl eugenol in suppressing fruit fly populations on chili plants, to determine the effectiveness of chili fruit extract in controlling fruit flies, and to determine the effect of combining methyl eugenol and chili fruit extract on the level of fruit fly infestation on chili plants. The research method used is a Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of five treatments and five replications. The research results show that three species were found: Bactrocera dorsalis, Bactrocera cucurbitae, and Bactrocera umbrosa. The ANOVA results show that all treatments did not have a significant effect on the number of fruit flies. Additionally, the values of the diversity index, evenness index, and dominance index also showed no significant differences between treatments, with the B. dorsalis species community dominating. The incidence of fruit fly attacks on chili plants varies considerably, reaching its highest level of 81.25% at point 2 and its lowest at 60% at point 5. Based on the results obtained, chili fruit extract was unable to suppress the fruit fly population because the volatile content in chili did not consistently function as an attractant. The combination of methyl eugenol and chili fruit extract also did not show a significant difference between treatments.
