Geraniol
Type: Insecticide
Mode of Action: Disrupting the nervous system & cellular membranes
Common Product Names: Essentria
What is it?
Geraniol is a naturally occurring compound found in the essential oils of several aromatic plants, such as geraniums, lemongrass, and roses. It has a pleasant floral scent, making it a popular choice not only in pest control but also in the fragrance industry. As a biodegradable and non-toxic substance, Geraniol is considered safe for humans, pets, and the environment, distinguishing it from many synthetic pesticides. Geraniol is effective both as a curative and a preventative agent. When applied directly to pests, results can be seen almost immediately. Its repellent properties help in preventing future infestations, providing both immediate and long-term pest control solutions.
How does it work?
Geraniol works by targeting and disrupting the nervous systems of pests. When applied, it penetrates the exoskeleton of insects and mites, causing cellular damage and leading to their rapid immobilization and death. Its efficacy is enhanced by its ability to act as both a contact and a repellent agent, making it a versatile tool in integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.
