ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a method for controlling a pest population using a composition comprising a benzyl ester of an aromatic acid or aliphatic acid or a salicylate. Methods and compositions for controlling a pest population are provided. The compositions comprise a benzyl ester of an aromatic acid or aliphatic acid or a salicylate. The composition can include at least one fatty-acid ester to increase the pesticidal activity. The subject method controls the population of pests such as plant pests or pests infesting a mammal by contacting the pests with the composition. The subject method reduces the environmental and health hazards in pest control by minimizing the toxicity of the subject composition.
