Bioactivity of Ocimum gratissimum L. oil and two of its constituents against five insect pests attacking stored food products

TL;DR: Ocimum gratissimum oil and its constituents are potential alternatives to synthetic fumigants in the treatment of durable agricultural products and successful adoption of plant oils in the protection of food commodities promises an eco-friendly option compatible with international biosafety regulations.

Preliminary evaluation of new candidate materials as toxicants, repellents, and attractants against stored-product insects

TL;DR: Two compounds, Bay 88991 and Penick SBP1382, showed promise as repellents against confused flour beetles and generally less toxic to the insects than was the malathion standard.

Phytochemicals and Insect Control: An Antifeedant Approach

TL;DR: It can be visualized that insect feeding deterrents may be perceived either by stimulation of specialized deterrent receptors or by distortion of the normal function of neurons, which perceive phagostimulating compounds.
