A variety of agricultural spacer fabrics/textiles are provided that protect plants from insect penetration while allowing for light and air penetration, and methods of use. The textiles can be used alone or in conjunction with agents such as insecticides, insect repellants, and fungicides. The agricultural textile can have an outermost fabric layer, an innermost fabric layer, and a plurality of filaments connecting the outermost fabric layer and the innermost fabric layer.

A composition includes a gel carrier having a gel phase at a first, ambient temperature and a liquid phase at a second, higher temperature, and an insect repellent chemical in the carrier. The repellent chemical has substantially no volatilization from the gel carrier when the gel carrier is in the gel phase, but volatilizes from the gel carrier when the gel carrier is in the liquid phase.
