If you want a lush garden full of healthy, vibrant plants, flying and crawling insects may be your worst enemy. After you've planted and carefully tended your plants, you may get frustrated only to find them infested with creepy crawlies like caterpillars, aphids and fruit flies that happily nibble their way through your garden or orchard.
This is one place where a good insecticide comes to the rescue. If you are an organic gardener who is concerned about toxic chemicals and prefers eco-friendly options, plant-based insecticides can work quickly to control and eliminate insects.
Insecticides are a type of pesticide that is used to specifically target and kill insects. Some insecticides can include snail bait, ant killer, wasp killer, and insecticide sprays that target a wide range of insects. Insecticides are also very effective at controlling insects in the larval stage of development before they grow into adult insects. There are some insecticide brands that also work as a pesticide.
Lambda-Cyhalothrin
Pyrethrins are extracted from the flowers of the chrysanthemum plant. It is effective against a wide range of insects: ants, cockroaches, fleas, true bugs, aphids, scale, caterpillars, flies, wasps and beetles (especially Japanese beetles).
It is ideal for organic gardening because it disappears quickly from plants and soil after eliminating unwanted pests. Low toxicity makes it safe for use on humans, pets and livestock. Pyrethroids will quickly knock out insects once they come into contact with them. However, if you don't use a high enough dose, they may come back to life.
Insecticides containing pyrethroids are often mixed with a low percentage of piperonyl butoxide (PBO), a toxic non-organic chemical that makes the product more effective. Although insecticides with pyrethroids use only very small amounts of piperonyl butoxide (PBO), you may prefer products that use all-natural products such as neem oil or essential oils.
Lambda-cyhalothrin is high-efficiency, broad-spectrum, quick-acting pyrethroid insecticides and acaricides, mainly contact and stomach poisoning, no systemic effect.It has a good effect on Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Hemiptera and other pests as well as spider mites, rust mites, gall mites, tarsal mites, etc. It can also be used to control a variety of surface and public health pests.
Aim Insects
Herbicides are used to kill unwanted plants or "weeds". Some herbicides kill all the plants they come in contact with. Others are designed to target a single species.
While there are many pesticides that contain strong chemicals that effectively control and destroy insects in gardens and crops, many organic gardeners want a more natural, non-toxic and environmentally friendly alternative.
Unlike synthetic insecticides that may contain toxic chemicals harmful to humans, the land and the environment, plant-based insecticides contain natural chemicals derived from plants or minerals. While they are safe for humans, they are toxic to insects and plant diseases, such as "black spots" that can attack roses.
Naturally occurring chemicals such as polymethoxins, pyrethrins and neem oil usually work quickly and degrade quickly. They are not toxic to humans. Or they have very low toxicity to mammals and birds and minimal environmental impact.
Some manufacturers of botanical insecticides may use essential oils to repel insects, such as cedarwood oil, lavender oil, eucalyptus oil, pennyroyal, citronella oil, rosemary, peppermint and soybean oil, which are also effective.
In your search for natural alternatives to harmful chemicals, some of the super-scientific names can be confusing. So here are some of the most common natural chemicals used in many plant pesticides.
