11General insect repellency + some disease suppressionBonide® Neem Oil (and similar neem oils)Clarified hydrophobic extract of neem oilFoliar spray; coverage importantShort on foliage; variable by fractionNot the same as “azadirachtin products”
12Deer repellent (browse protection)Liquid Fence® Deer & RabbitPutrescent whole egg solids + garlic (typical)Foliar spray on plantsShort–moderate; weather-dependentNeeds reapply after rain/new growth
13Deer repellent (strong odor/taste)Plantskydd®Dried blood (porcine/bovine; product-specific)Foliar spray or powder on plantsModerate; weather-dependentOften strong on deer; reapply intervals matter

15Rodent “destroyer” option compatible with organic systemsVictor® / snap traps (various)Mechanical controlTrap placement along runways/wallsN/AIn organic systems, lethal control is typically trapping/exclusion vs toxic baits

 

 
#Primary need (what for)Brand / product line (USA)Active ingredient(s)How appliedTypical persistence / half-life (high-level)Notes
16Sunburn/heat stress + some insect suppressionSurround® WPKaolin (95%)Foliar spray; particle film barrierPhysical film; not a chemical half-lifeCan reduce pest feeding/egglaying via barrier; coverage is everything
17Caterpillars (“worms”)Dipel® / Thuricide® (Btk products)Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstakiFoliar spray; must be ingestedBiological; UV reduces field activity (no single fixed half-life)Best on small larvae; reapply after sun/rain
18Thrips/leafminers/caterpillarsEntrust® (spinosad)SpinosadFoliar spray (ag formulations often for farms)Soil half-lives reported 9–17 daysRotate modes of action to reduce resistance pressure
19Broad knockdown insectsPyrethrin products (various OMRI lines)PyrethrinsFoliar spray; contactHalf-lives reported 11.8 h in water and 12.9 h on soil surfaces (sunlight)Very short residual; timing matters
20Soft-bodied insects + some disease suppression programsNeem oil lines (multiple brands)Neem oil components; azadirachtin behavior often used as fate referenceFoliar spray; coverageAzadirachtin half-life ranges: soil 3–44 days, water 48 min–4 days, leaf 1–2.5 days“Neem oil” products vary; do not treat all as identical
21Deer & rabbit repellent (odor/taste)Liquid Fence® Deer & RabbitPutrescent whole egg solids + garlic (+ minor oils/surfactant)Foliar spray on vegetation; reapply after rain/new growthNot a pesticide half-life; performance is weather-dependentWorks by smell/taste deterrence; maintain coverage on new growth
22Deer/rabbit/elk repellent (odor)Plantskydd®Dried blood (porcine and/or bovine)Mix with water (powder) or RTU; spray directly or barrier plantsNot a pesticide half-life; label claims multi-month persistence depending on conditionsTreat new growth; barrier strategy often used
23Rodent “destroyer” (organic-compatible lethal control)Snap traps (Victor® and similar)MechanicalPlace along runways/walls; bait as neededN/AThis is the defensible lethal-control category for organic systems
24Rodent repellent (deterrent)Peppermint-oil repellents (various brands)Peppermint oil (typical)Place pouches/sprays in entry zonesNot a pesticide half-life; volatile loss drives reapplyWorks best paired with exclusion
25Mole/vole deterrence (repellent)Castor-oil granules (various brands)Castor oil (typical)Broadcast granules; water-inNot a pesticide half-life; irrigation/rain reducesRepellent only; does not reliably “kill”
26Slugs/snailsSluggo Plus®Iron phosphate + spinosad (product-specific)Bait granulesSpinosad soil half-lives 9–17 days (for spinosad component)Broader target range than iron phosphate alone (read label carefully)
27Powdery mildewPotassium bicarbonate lines (multiple)Potassium bicarbonateFoliar spray; thorough leaf coverageShort, contact-only effect (no standard half-life cited)Works best preventively/early; not systemic
28Fungal disease suppression (preventive programs)Double Nickel® / similar biofungicidesBacillus amyloliquefaciens (strain-based)Foliar spray / drench (label-specific)Biological; persistence depends on colonization (no single fixed half-life)Best as repeated preventive coverage
29Downy mildew / oomycete suppression programsPhosphorous acid / phosphite products (organic status varies by product)Phosphite/phosphorous acidFoliar spray/drenchChemical; do not assume allowed—verify per exact product listingInclude only if you verify listing/allowed status for that SKU
30Copper fungicide (leaf spots, blights suppression)Liqui-Cop® / copper soaps (brand varies)Copper (form varies by product)Foliar sprayPersistence is not meaningfully expressed as half-life (copper is an element)Use lowest effective rate; phytotoxicity risk in heat
31Sulfur fungicide/miticideWettable sulfur brands (Bonide®, etc.)SulfurFoliar spray/dustNot expressed as half-life like organics; performance depends on coverageDo not apply close to oils (label spacing)
32Horticultural oil (scale/mites; smothering)All Seasons® / horticultural oilsMineral oil / horticultural oil (product-specific)Foliar spray; smothering contactNot expressed as half-life; residue fades with weatheringTemperature-sensitive; follow label to avoid burn
33Diatomaceous earth (crawling insects)Food-grade DE brands (garden)Diatomaceous earthDust; keep dryPhysical; no chemical half-lifeLoses efficacy when wet; best in dry zones
34Ant control (non-synthetic bait approach varies)Sugar/borate baits (status varies)Borate/boric acid (varies)Bait stationsVariesOrganic crop-production acceptability is not universal—verify before listing as “organic”
35Beneficial insects (biocontrol)Arbico Organics® beneficials (retailer brand)Live predators/parasitoidsRelease into crop areaBiological; survival depends on habitatStrong greenhouse/hoop-house use; not “half-life” based
36Beneficial nematodes (grubs/soil pests)Beneficial nematodes (multiple brands)Steinernema/Heterorhabditis spp.Soil drench; apply in evening; keep moistBiological; survival depends on moisture/UVStorage and timing determine results
37Tool/surface sanitationAlcohol sanitizers (various)Ethanol / isopropanolWipe/spray on tools/surfacesVery short; evaporates rapidlySanitation use (not a field persistence use)
38Greenhouse sanitation / biofilm controlPeroxide/peroxyacetic acid sanitizers (various)Hydrogen peroxide / peroxyacetic acidSurface/line treatment (label-specific)Break down rapidly (no single half-life stated here)Use per label; strong oxidizers
