“…Similar results were reported on Podisus nigrispinus, where survival rates of this predatory stink bug declined at different concentrations of neem oil(Zanuncio et al 2016). Reduction in T. urticae life expectancy (e xj ) is an effect of essential oils treatment(Rezaei et al 2014;Esmaeily et al 2017).

“…These effects may eventually result in a reduced population growth of this predator. Similar effects were observed on developmental time duration of T. urticae when exposed to sublethal concentrations of Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume (Laurales: Lauraceae)(Rezaei et al 2014). Also the longevity and total life span of A. swirskii were in all oil treatments reduced.…”

“…Overall, S. hortensis had the strongest negative effect on A. swirskii followed by N. crispa and A. graveolens. Similar effects of aromatic plant oils on female longevity have been reported when T. urticae was exposed to C. zeylanicum(Rezaei et al 2014), Artemisia annua L. and Rosmarinus o cinalis L. essential oils(Esmaeily et al 2017). Similar observations have been reported in other studies, where plant extracts also negatively affected the life cycle of insects(Gaspari et al 2007;Poderoso et al 2016).…”

The predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii is widely used natural enemy of phytophagous pests. Due to negative effects of conventional pesticides on non-target organism, the development of selective natural and eco-friendly pesticides such as essential plant oils are a useful pest control tool to use in synergy with biological control agents. Essential oils of Nepeta crispa, Satureja hortensis and Anethum graveolens showed promising results to control Tetranychus urticae. Hence an experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of these essential oils on biochemical and demographic parameters of A. swirskii. Significant reduction of carbohydrate, lipid and protein contents of oil-treated predatory mites was observed. However oils of S. hortensis and A. graveolens had no negative impact on lipid reserve. Glutathione-S-transferase activity of A. swirskii was influenced by A. graveolens. In addition, the enzyme activity of the α-esterases was elevated by all treatments. The essential oils showed no effect on β-esterases activity compared to the control treatment. None of the concentrations of the different tested oils affected the population growth parameters of A. swirskii. However, a significant reduction was observed in oviposition time and total fecundity of predatory mites. Our observations show that the tested essential plant oils need some caution when applied as alternatives to synthetic pesticides in combination with A. swirskii and may have critical implications for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. However, semi-field and field studies are required to evaluate the effects of these products on T. urticae and A. swirskii for developing IPM strategies.

“…Essential oils are widely used in human and veterinary medicine, and for protection against insects, mites and pathogens. The essential oils of cinnamon (Cinnamoumi zeylanicum) and clover (Eugenia caryophyllata) are used against insects (Plata Rueda et al, 2018), mites (Rezaei et al, 2014) and pathogens (Božik et al, 2017). Antifungal activity of cinnamon and clover essential oils on mold has been confirmed (Ju et al, 2018).…”

Response of wild Mus musculus to baits containing essential oils: I - Cinnamon and clove tested in storage facilities

The effect of cinnamon (Cinnamomi zeylanicum) and clove (Eugenia caryophyllata) essential oils on the acceptibility of cereal-based baits to house mice in storage facilities was examined. The effects of three concentrations, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 %, were tested for optimization purposes. The experiments were performed in a mill storage, and in another storage for seeds and seedlings. Attractiveness of the examined concentrations of cinnamon and clove essential oils was statistically significant, compared to placebo bait, within seven days of the experiment. On the seventh day, the average consumption of baits containing 0.75 % and 1 % concentrations of cinnamon oil was 46 % in the mill storage, i.e. 35.5 % more than placebo baits were consumed. Fourteen days after the beginning of the experiment, no significant difference was detected in the consumption of baits offered in the mill storage. On the other hand, a significant difference was revealed regarding the consumption of examined baits in the seed and seedling storage. The average consumption of baits containing 0.75 % and 1 % cinnamon oil was 47 % and 51 % higher after 14 days than the consumption of placebo bait. Compared to the other test baits, those containing cinnamon essential oil at 0.75 % and 1 % concentration demonstrated better attractiveness without mutual statistically significant differences.

The present study was carried out to evaluate an alternative controlling agent for greenhouse pests and the yellow fever mosquito larvae. The potential bioactivity of Licaria puchury-major (Mart.) Kosterm. ("puxuri") was evaluated here against three most common pests in tropical and subtropical countries: Aedes aegypti Linn. Larvae, Tetranychus urticae Koch. mites and Cerataphis lataniae Boisd. aphids. The essential oil from seeds was analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS. The major compounds were safrole (38.8%) and eucalyptol (21.7%). Phenylpropanes (51.7%) was the main group of compounds and oxygenated monoterpenes represented 28.8% of the total oil. The essential oil has shown no inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the tested concentrations. However, potential antioxidant activities were evaluated by different methods [DPPH: LD 50 = (27.8 ± 1.0) µg/.mL; ABTS: (977.3 ± 25.2) µM TEs/g (Trolox Equivalents); FRAP: (548.2 ± 29.0) µM Fe(II)/g]. A significant larvicidal potential for 24 h of exposure was observed with LD 50 = 98.9 µg/mL, being an indicative that the larval mortality may occur by ingestion or contact due to the no inhibition against AChE. Volatile phase effects were evaluated against T. urticae Koch. and C. lataniae Boisd. and LD 50 were found about 30.8 and 13.5 µg/mL, respectively. These results are consistent with an octopaminergic effect, since some phenylpropanoids (such as Safrole, identified as the major compound in this work) can block octopamine, a multi-functional, naturally occurring biogenic amine. Then, this study clearly illustrated the efficacy of the investigated seeds, which encourages the development of a new potential natural controlling agent against these common pests due to the abundance of these seeds in the Amazon region and to the high essential oil yield.
