In this article three types of botanical insecticides are shown: products of neem oil from seeds of Azadirachta indica Juss., pongam oil from Pongamia pinnata L. and essential oils from some aromatic plants. Their effective use against common greenhouse pests such as whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum West, Bemisia tabaci Gennad.), two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch), aphids and caterpillars is demonstrated. The capacity to use botanical insecticides as effective pest-controlling agents, as well as some of their limitations, are also discussed.
