| The need for food in the world is increasing every year. Due to the increasing need for food, producers produce more agricultural products every year and store the harvested products from the field in large warehouses or silos before they are delivered to the end consumer. However, one of the most important problems is the healthy preservation of these products in warehouses or silos. Harvested products field are vulnerable to many species and microorganisms, such as warehouse pests, in warehouses. Before the discovery of insecticides, the use of plant-derived insecticides in pest control was quite common. With the development of technology, the discovery of synthetic insecticides has increased our success in figthing these pests. However, since these chemicals are harmful to the environment and organisms health, the interest in alternative control methods has been increasing in recent years. One of the alternative methods in the fight against harmful insects is the figth with plant essential oils. Since essential oils are organic extracts, they only affect insects in the fight against pests, and their harm to non-target organisms is minimal, there is a possibility that they will be an alternative control method in the future. As a result of the studies, it is understood that the extracts obtained from the leaves, stems, roots and fruits of various plants that are accessible in nature have been tested on different insects and positive results have been obtained. The aim of this review study is to emphasize that it is possible to use plant essential oils instead of pesticides used in the fight against pests in agricultural and other areas around the world. |
