The present disclosure relates to a composition that includes lemongrass, castor oil, cedarwood oil, geraniol, sodium laurel sulfate, and corn oil for repelling and killing mosquitos. In one aspect of the inventive compositions comprise Guatemalan lemongrass, Juniperus virginiana and cedarwood oil. Some compositions further comprise mint oil, e.g., and Montana mint oil. Compositions according to the inventive subject matter kill insects at multiple stages in their life cycle including adult insects, larvae, and disrupt the egg cycle. In another aspect, the inventive compositions repel insects and retain repellency and insecticidal potency over a longer period of time than other natural insect repellents.

Formulations usable in repelling pests from objects are provided. The formulations contain a tacky polymeric composition and can be aqueous formulations and/or formulation that are devoid of an organic solvent. The formulations exhibit exceptional durability when applied to objects such as plants.

In one aspect, this invention relates to pest repellent compositions comprising a fatty acid and an anthranilate ester. In another aspect, this invention relates to a method of repelling pests employing such composition. In another aspect, this invention relates to products formulated from such composition.

The application provides a method, system and device for managing pest treatment and crop growth based on pheno logical model, the system comprising one or more network-interfacing sensors configured to acquire and communicate sensed data associated with the one or more crop locations, a digital data storage component for storing, over time, in association with the one or more crop locations, the sensed data, pest treatment application data, crop outcome data, and the pheno logical model for the one or more crop locations that provides pest treatment application suggestions in connection with the sensed data, and a digital data processor in network communication with the digital data storage component and operable to calculate a correlation between said crop outcome data and the pest treatment application data for the one or more crop locations.

In certain aspects, the present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a first compound that is a trigeminal nerve irritant, a second compound that is an animal repellent, and an acceptable carrier. The disclosure also relates to methods of repelling an animal from a substrate comprising applying to a substrate the compositions comprising a trigeminal nerve irritant and an animal repellent as described herein.
