Methods and compositions for controlling the growth of an invasive species by application of a composition comprised of a natural pesticide derived from a species to the invasive species, especially endocides.

Methods and compositions for controlling the growth of an invasive species by application of a composition comprised of a natural pesticide derived from a species to the invasive species, especially endocides. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for controlling the growth of a first invasive species by application of a composition comprising a natural pesticide derived from a second invasive species to the first invasive species. In some embodiments, the invasive species is an invasive species with glands as the primary accumulation sites of autotoxic chemicals. The first and second invasive species may be the same or they may be different. In some embodiments, the natural pesticide may be an endocide. An endocide (endogenous biocide) is a biocide derived from an endogenous bioactive agent (e.g., a secondary metabolite) that does not cause apparent poison in normal growth of the producing species but will poison or inhibit and even eliminate the parent species when induced in producing species.

Various delivery vehicles, including wipes, may be used to deliver the composition to surfaces.

This invention relates to aqueous plant treatment compositions that improve the environmental experience of the consumer and industrial grower while contributing to the health of plants. Compositions of the invention include mixtures of naturally sourced fragrances, plant sourced micronutrients, plant sourced pesticides, naturally sourced emulsifying agents, and odor sequestering agents. Compositions are combined as solutions that may be disposed onto soil, plant foliage, or onto cellulosic substrate to reduce or eliminate the malodors of plant treatments as from previous organic fertilizers or from pesticides, while imparting a pleasant post treatment fragrance.
