Neem Products and their uses against insects


Neem Oil, Neem Leaf Powder, Neem Seed & Leaf Extracts, Azadirachtin based Formulations ( 300 ppm to 50000 ppm ), Azadirachtin Technical powder ( 10 - 41.77 %) Neem Cake pellets & Flakes, Neem Urea Guard , etc.. as INPUTS to ORGANIC / NATURAL FARMING
SOME OF THE INSECTS AFFECTED BY NEEM PRODUCTS
American Cockroach: Reduces fecundity and molts, reduces number of fertile eggs.
Bean Aphid : Reduces fecundity, disrupts molting.
Boll weevil : Inhibits feeding.
Brown planthopper : Inhibits feeding repellent, disrupts growth, making failures and sterility.
Cabbage looper : Inhibits feeding
Colorado Potato beetle : Eggs fail to hatch, larvae fail to molt with azadirachtin levels as low as 3ppm inhibits feeding.
Confused flour beetle : Inhibits feeding, disrupts molting, molting, toxic to larvae.
Corn carworm : Retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts molting
Cowpea weevil : Inhibits feeding, toxic.
Diamondback Moth : Strongly suppresses larvae and pupae, retards growth, inhibits feeding.
Face Fly : Retards growth
 Flea : Retards growth, repels, inhibits feeding, disrupts growth, eggs fail to hatch.
Flea beetle : Inhibits feeding.
Fire ant : Inhibits feeding, disrupts growth.
Green leafhopper : Inhibits feeding.
Gypsy moth : Retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts growth.
Head Lice : Kills, very sensitive to neem oil - traditional use in Asia.
Horn fly : Repels, retards growth, disrupts growth.
Housefly : Inhibits feeding, disrupts molting, repels.
House cricket : Disrupts molting.
House mosquito : Toxic to larvae.
Japanese beetle : Repels, retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts growth.
Khapra beetle : Inhibits feeding, disrupts molting, toxic to larvae.
Large milkweed bug: Toxic, disrupts growth.
Leafminer : Retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts molting, toxic.
Mealy bugs : Repels, inhibits feeding.
Meditterranean Fruit fly : Disrupts growth, toxic.
 Mexican bean beetle : Retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts molting.
Migratory locust : Stops feeding, converts gregarious nymphs into solitary forms, reduces fitness, adults cannot fly.
Milkweed bug : Difficulty in escaping the "skin" of the last molt, disrupts molting.
Oriental fruit fly: Arrest pupae development, retards growth, toxic to larvae.
Pink hollworm : Retards growth, inhibits feeding.
Red flour beetle : Inhibits feeding, toxic.
Rice gall midge : Toxic.
 Rice weevil : Inhibits feeding, disrupts growth, toxic.
Serpentine leafminer : High pupal mortality, retards growth, inhibits feeding, disrupts molting, toxic to larvae.
Sorghum shoot fly : Inhibits feeding.
Spotted cucumber beetle : Retards growth, inhibits feeding.
Tobacco budworm : Inhibits feeding.
Tobacco hornworm : Inhibits feeding, disrupts growth, toxic.
Webbing clothes moth : Inhibits feeding, disrupts molting.
Western thmps : Retards growth.
Whitefly : Repels, retards growth, inhibits feeding.
Yellow-fever Mosquito : Kills larvae, disrupts molting.
