Abstract
Plants of a number of families (Asteraceae, Apiaceae, Lamiaceae, Lauraceae, Myrtaceae, Rosaceae, Zingiberaceae etc.) are the objects of close attention and may be promising for obtaining essential oils with a pronounced repellent and/or insecticidal effect properties. However, species of the Lamiaceae family are of great importance for Russia, it is to the species of this family that the attention of researchers should be paid. Collections of botanical gardens—require close attention to the condition of the grown plants, as well as the health of people visiting the botanical gardens. The use of solutions of various oils (fatty and essential), non-toxic for warm-blooded animals and humans, opens up the prospect of developing an environmentally friendly way to combat phytophagous and plant diseases. A review of a number of publications showing the insecticidal, repellent, antimicrobial action of essential oils is given. Analysis of published works on the search for essential oils with a repellent and insecticidal effect allows us to determine new areas of research. Regular treatments (every 10–14 days) with aqueous emulsion of neem oil (Azadirachta indica) with the addition of essential oils some species from different species of Lamiaceae family, reduces the number of insect pests by 50–90%.
