Extracts of garlic have proved effective against Alternaria spp, powdery mildew, black spot, Phytopthera, Fusarium spp. and bacterial pathogens like Pseudomonas. The National Research Center for Onion and Garlic, Pune, Maharastra is conducting research on this pesticide.

Repel and/or kill insects and related species such as mites and millipedes. (See Table for specifics.) Application Methods:These oils can be applied and used as liquid sprays, crystals, gels, and pellets, and by impregnating material, such as …

Nov 16, 2021 · The whole garlic plant (including all the parts : flowers, bulbs and leaves) can be used as a biopesticide in plant protection. Biopesticide made by garlic is effective because of its repellent, insecticidal, fungicidal, nematicidal, and antibiotic properties.

Jul 1, 2022 · This study evaluated the potential of garlic oil as a biopesticide against the eggs, larvae, pupae and adult forms of Ae. aegypti, in accordance with the World Health Organization recommendations.

Garlic oil has been shown to possess fumigant activity against the larval sciarid fly Lycoriella ingénue with a LC 50 of 0.87 µL·L −1 and various other grain storage insects [13,14]. Comparing the LC 50s shown in Table 1 , garlic oils have a greater insecticidal effect compared to …

The ovicidal, larvicidal, pupicidal, adulticidal and repellent assays showed the broad activity of garlic oil against Ae. aegypti. These results, together with the activity in simulated field trials, support the applicability of garlic oil in integrated mosquito vector control programs.

The findings showed that the initial phase (1999–2015) of research was primarily focused on essential oil extraction, chemical composition, and utilization for biological control (such as antimicrobial and antifungal activities), using insects as model organisms and monoterpenes as a key biopesticide agent.

Oct 1, 2024 · Plant-based essential oils form as an excellent alternative source to synthetic pesticides and can reduce negative impacts on human health by decreasing the food, water and soil-borne pesticide residues which are otherwise toxic (Pathak et al., 2022; Ngegba et al., 2022).

Microbial pesticides use microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoans as biological components. These types of species are precisely delivered to the target species. Microbial biopesticides are environment-friendly, host-specific, and self-replicating.

Aug 15, 2016 · Therefore, bio-insecticides “Green pesticides” have posted as an alternative to synthetic insecticides in agriculture and public health sectors. The study presented here focuses on the prospects of essential oils (EOs) as bio-insecticides for insect pest management.
