Meloidogyne incognita, a highly destructive plant-parasitic nematode, poses a significant threat to crop production. The reliance on chemical nematicides for nematode control has been crucial; however, the banning of many effective nematicides due to their adverse effects has necessitated the exploration of alternative solutions. Rhizosphere biocontrol bacteria, particularly strains of Bacillus, have demonstrated promising results in managing plant-parasitic nematodes.

Background: Effective management strategies against tick infestations are necessary because tickborne diseases represent serious hazards to the health of humans and animals worldwide. The aim of this study was to examine the larvicidal and ovicidal properties of Xanthium strumarium extract against a notorious tick species, Rhipicephalus microplus.
Methodology: The maceration method was used to prepare the ethanolic extract of X.

Article Synopsis
- Plant essential oils (EOs) are effective and safer alternatives to traditional pesticides for pest control due to their low toxicity to non-target species.
- Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) identified thymol, p-cymene, and γ-terpinene as the main components in the studied EO, which showed significant larvicidal and ovicidal activity against certain pests.
- The study also found that EO treatment influenced detoxification enzyme activities, supporting its potential as an eco-friendly insecticide option.

Mosquitoes, as hematophagous ectoparasites, are significant pests and vectors of numerous pathogens, causing diseases such as dengue, lymphatic filariasis, malaria, chikungunya, and Japanese encephalitis in India. This study investigates the potential of natural insecticides derived from plants to combat mosquito populations, focusing on botanical extract from the leave of Sphaeranthus indicus. Specifically, the hexane extract of S.
