Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0167868A2] The present invention relates to acaricides. More particularly, the present invention relates to botanical acaricides. In particular, the present invention relates to compositions and methods for controlling plant-infesting acari with plant extracts and notably with compositions comprising oil extracts from Chenopodiacae and more particlarly <i>Chenopodium ambrosioides</i>. The invention further relates to compositions comprising such extracts as acaricidal compositions displaying a potent effect on Tetranychidae (mites) and providing the advantages of minimal development of resistance thereto, minimal toxicity to mammals, minimal residual activity and environmental compatibility. In a further embodiment, the compositions of the present invention further display insecticidal activity on plant-infesting insects. In an especially preferred embodiment, the plant acaricidal composition comprises alpha -terpinene, p-cymene, limonene, ascaridole, iso-ascaridole, thymol and carvacrol.
