A method is provided for the prevention, treatment and/or management of the black sigatoka on plants prone to such fungus. In a preferred embodiment the method comprises the steps of providing a fungicidal composition comprising karanj oil; applying the composition on the plants; wherein the step of applying is repeated as necessary and can be done until a day before harvest. In another preferred embodiment the invention comprises an aqueous fungicidal composition comprising karanj oil. The composition may further include fermented aloe vera extracts, a natural surfactant, and/or water as a solvent.

A formulation for repelling insects and arthropods comprises about 0.5% by weight to about 4.0% by weight of an active ingredient and an emulsifier. The active ingredient includes a mixture of one or more natural essential oils. A method for making the repellant formulation comprises forming an oil-in-water emulsion by mixing one or more of the natural essential oils into an aqueous solution including an emulsifier, homogenizing the oil-in-water emulsion, and adding a buffer to the emulsion for maintaining a pH of the emulsion at above about 7.5. The repellant formulation is used by applying an effective amount of the repellant formulation onto the skin or fur of a mammal, clothing or other surface.

Described herein are compositions and methods to be used in controlling pests, such as arthropods, nematodes, helminths, insect pests, internal parasites, and external parasites. Such compositions make use of at least a blend of one or more essential oils and, optionally, additional components, such as surfactants, emulsifiers, solvents, additives, and inerts. Compositions can be applied to a variety of locations to control pests or can also be added into feed or foodstuffs to afford internal pest control.
