An insecticidal composition and its method of preparation are presented. The composition comprises a basal broth, a chitinase broth and a chemical fungicide. The basal broth has proteins hydrolyzed by papain and pancreatin while the chitinase broth is prepared by fermenting chitin and a chitinase-producing bacterial culture. The insecticidal composition has synergistic activity.
