Abstract

Pesticidal compositions containing rosemary oil and/or wintergreen oil and methods for using same are disclosed.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A pesticidal composition comprising rosemary oil and at least one diluent selected from the group consisting of wintergreen oil, peppermint oil, mineral oil, lecithin, benzyl alcohol, citronellal, d-limonene, safflower oil, soybean oil, and sesame oil, wherein the composition is pesticidally effective against fungus, bacteria, insects, arachnids, larvae and eggs thereof. 
     
     
         2 . The pesticidal composition of  claim 1 , wherein the composition is effective against mites, aphids, thrips, whiteflies, loopers, worms, beetles, leafrollers, moths and weevils and eggs thereof. 
     
     
         3 . A method for controlling agricultural invertebrate pests, including insects, arachnids, larvae and eggs thereof, comprising applying to the locus where control is desired a pesticidally-effective amount of the composition of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the invertebrate pest is selected from the group consisting of mites, aphids, thrips, whiteflies, loopers, worms, beetles, leafrollers, moths and weevils and eggs thereof. 
     
     
         5 - 111 . (canceled) 
     
     
         112 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluent is wintergreen oil. 
     
     
         113 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluent is peppermint oil. 
     
     
         114 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluent is mineral oil. 
     
     
         115 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluent is lecithin. 
     
     
         116 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil and lecithin. 
     
     
         117 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil and mineral oil. 
     
     
         118 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil, lecithin and mineral oil. 
     
     
         119 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil, peppermint oil and lecithin. 
     
     
         120 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil, peppermint oil and mineral oil. 
     
     
         121 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil, peppermint oil, lecithin and mineral oil. 
     
     
         122 . A pesticidal composition comprising rosemary, peppermint oil and at least one diluent selected from the group consisting of wintergreen oil, mineral oil, lecithin, benzyl alcohol, citronellal, d-limonene, safflower oil, soybean oil, and sesame oil, wherein the composition is pesticidally effective against fungus, bacteria, insects, arachnids, larvae and eggs thereof. 
     
     
         123 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluent is wintergreen oil. 
     
     
         124 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluent is mineral oil. 
     
     
         125 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluent is lecithin. 
     
     
         126 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil and lecithin. 
     
     
         127 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil and mineral oil. 
     
     
         128 . The composition of  claim 122 , wherein the diluents are wintergreen oil, lecithin and mineral oil. 
     
     
         129 . The pesticidal composition of  claim 122 , wherein the composition is effective against mites, aphids, thrips, whiteflies, loopers, worms, beetles, leafrollers, moths and weevils and eggs thereof. 
     
     
         130 . A method for controlling agricultural invertebrate pests, including insects, arachnids, larvae and eggs thereof, comprising applying to the locus where control is desired a pesticidally-effective amount of the composition of  claim 122 . 
     
     
         131 . The method of  claim 130 , wherein the invertebrate pest is selected from the group consisting of mites, aphids, thrips, whiteflies, loopers, worms, beetles, leafrollers, moths and weevils and eggs thereof.
