The protection of plants and human and non-human subjects from pathogens enables a multivalent approach to inhibiting pathogen infection in plant and human and non-human animal subjects and to ameliorate damage to susceptible subjects. A method for protecting a subject from a disease associated with infection by a pathogen includes providing cells of said subject with a Class I defensin and a permeabilizing defensin or a precursor or a functional homolog, analog, derivative or variant thereof of either or both.

A bedding insecticide composition for safely exterminating bed bugs is provided. The bedding insecticide composition includes vinegar, liquid dish soap, rubbing alcohol, peppermint extract, rosemary oil, geranium oil, and ground arbol chili seeds. In a preferred embodiment, the bedding insecticide composition is placed within a spray bottle, wherein the composition is applied to a surface containing a bed bug infestation. Once applied, the insecticide composition effectively rids the surface of any bed bugs. The bedding insecticide composition includes environmentally friendly ingredients allowing the composition to be safely used within a home. Alternatively, the bedding insecticide composition may be used on vegetation for exterminating parasitic insects.
