The present invention provides a method for preventing and/or treating infection of plant species by fungal, mildew-causing, bacterial and/or viral pathogens, wherein said method comprises the steps of a) providing a mixture of one or more non-pathogenic bacteria and one or more activating agents, and b) administering the mixture of step (a) to said plant species, by means of both (i) adding a plurality of granules coated with said mixture to the medium in which said plant is growing, and (ii) applying a foliar spray comprising said mixture to the aerial parts of said plant species.

Grease-like compositions are provided for repelling rodents. The compositions utilize nontoxic mineral, synthetic, or vegetable oil based gels containing silica, clay, urea, polytetrafluoroethylene, or metallic soap thickeners and capsaicin.

A stimulant composition to stimulate production of one or more cannabinoids by a plant producing such cannabinoids includes an optional diluent, and a lipid portion or lipid composition which includes free or saponified fatty acids, free fatty alcohols, wax esters, hydrocarbons, and at least one of a phospholipid and a terpene. The free fatty alcohols make up at least 5% by mass of the lipid portion or lipid composition. The phospholipid, when present, makes up at least 0.4% of the lipid portion or lipid composition. The terpene, when present, makes up at least 0.2% by mass of the lipid portion or lipid composition. The disclosure extends to a method of stimulating production of at least one cannabinoid in a plant producing the cannabinoid to promote increased yield of the cannabinoid.

Compositions and methods for affecting dipteran hematophagous parasites. The compositions contain at least one dipteran semiochemical and at least one phagostimulant. The compositions may further include a pesticide. The semiochemical may be a floral attractant and the phagostimulants may be sugar-based. The compositions may be useful in attracting mosquitoes and/or repelling sand flies.
