What Does Insecticide Do to Insects?

One of the questions often asked by gardeners is "What does insecticide due to insects?" The short answer to this question is that it kills or harms insects, but in a rather unintended manner. There are three major types of insecticides that you can find on the market today, each having its own type of insecticide effect on different species of insects. Here is a general list of the most commonly used insecticides by product name, all with their insecticide effects on certain types of insects:

Some of the most popular pesticides in use today include: Ethoxyquin, Azoxybenzene, and Terpenes. These are just a few examples of the insecticides on the market today. In fact, there are probably hundreds of other Insect Killer in use, with new ones being created on a daily basis. It is important to understand that some of the popular brands of commercial insect killers are NOT classified as insecticides in the strictest sense because they are not classified as chemical compounds at all! While they may have the label mentioned above, they are in actuality a highly toxic substance that can directly harm humans (especially children) and/or pets if exposed repeatedly over an extended period of time.

One of the safest brands to use is a natural product like Limonene or Tea Tree Oil. While both of these natural plant oils have insecticidal properties, neither is actually classified as an insecticide in any way. You can find both of these plant oils in a very affordable home remedy called "Repellent Concentrate" available through ordering online. Repellent concentrates will effectively eliminate any harmful pests in your yard, no matter what kind of bug you have!
