Abstract
The present invention is directed to a natural pesticide, which comprises two oil components. The first component is selected from at least one of the volatile oils and the other component is selected from at least one of the non-volatile oils. Mixing of these two oil components greatly increases the effectiveness for use as a pesticide than if the oils were used separately.
Claims12
A concentrated natural pesticide comprising:
- at least one non-volatile oil component;
- at least one volatile oil component;
- and,
- the ratio of said non-volatile oil component to said volatile oil component is in the range between one to ten and ten to one by weight;
- and when said concentrated natural pesticide is diluted with water, the combination of said non-volatile component and said volatile oil component exhibits improved pesticidal effectiveness than if either an equivalent amount of said non-volatile oil component or said volatile oil component were used alone.

A concentrated natural pesticide comprising:
- a non-volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cottonseed oil, corn oil, mineral oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, and vegetable oil;
- a volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cinnamon oil, rosemary oil, cedarwood oil, clove oil, sweet orange oil, and peppermint oil;
- and,
- the ratio of said non-volatile oil component to said volatile oil component is in the range between one to ten and ten to one by weight;
- and when said concentrated natural pesticide is diluted with water, the combination of said non-volatile component and said volatile oil component exhibits improved pesticidal effectiveness than if either an equivalent amount of said non-volatile oil component or said volatile oil component were used alone.

A concentrated natural pesticide comprising:
- a non-volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cottonseed oil, corn oil, mineral oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, vegetable oil, and fish oil;
- a volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cinnamon oil, rosemary oil, cedarwood oil, clove oil, sweet orange oil, peppermint oil, citronella oil, pine oil, citrus oil, eucalyptus oil, and camphor oil;
- and,
- the ratio of said non-volatile oil component to said volatile oil component is in the range between one to ten and ten to one by weight;
- and when said concentrated natural pesticide is diluted with water, the combination of said non-volatile component and said volatile oil component exhibits improved pesticidal effectiveness than if either an equivalent amount of said non-volatile oil component or said volatile oil component were used alone.

A natural pesticide comprising:
- a non-volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cottonseed oil, corn oil, mineral oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, vegetable oil, and fish oil;
- a volatile oil component, selected from the group consisting of cinnamon oil, rosemary oil, cedarwood oil, clove oil, sweet orange oil, peppermint oil, citronella oil, pine oil, citrus oil, eucalyptus oil, and camphor oil;
- water to dilute said components up to 2000 times;
- and,
- the ratio of said non-volatile oil component to said volatile oil component is in the range between one to ten and ten to one by weight;
- and wherein the diluted combination of said non-volatile component and said volatile oil component exhibits improved pesticidal effectiveness than if either an equivalent amount of said non-volatile oil component or said volatile oil component were diluted and used alone.
