Due to an increase in environmental and health issues and with the excessive use of
synthetic pesticides, many studies are investigating plant essential oils (EOs) for pest
control. These compounds are considered safe control agents since they have low toxicity to
non-target organisms. Thus, this study aimed to select potential EOs from the Myrtaceae
family and their constituents for the control of Ascia monuste (Godart) and to evaluate those
EOs selectivity to two non-target organisms (Solenopsis saevissima Smith and Tetragonisca …
