Abstract
In an insecticidal formulation containing Pyrethrum, addition of appropriate amounts of azadirachtin and clarified neem oil can significantly synergize the Pyrethrum activity while reducing or eliminating the need for Pipronyl butoxide as an agent to augment Pyrethrum activity. The disclosed formulations represent a significant cost advantage when compared to existing Pyrethrum/Pipronyl butoxide formulations.
