Implementing Biological Control Agents in the ASEAN Region
Caldwell et al. (2013) Resource guide for organic insect and disease management. Cornell University, New
York.
Botanical pesticides show different modes of action and require different environmental conditions
compared with synthetic pesticides. General application guidelines that contain many practical tips and
include notes on the safety and the effectiveness of various botanicals can be found in Caldwell et al. 2013.
Products like neem, pyrethrum, and rotenone are covered in depth. Additionally, useful categories for
efficacy evaluation of botanicals are proposed and extensive target pest lists are presented:
