Synergistic Insecticidal Interaction of <i>Aegle marmelos</i> and <i>Mentha piperita</i> against <i>Myzus persicae</i>
The efficacy of natural pesticides derived from Aegle marmelos and Mentha piperita leaves was investigated against green peach aphids (Myzus persicae). The extracts obtained via boiling and soxhlet methods from A. marmelos and M. piperita leaves were combined and tested for synergistic effects. The results indicate a 100% efficacy rate at a concentration of 500 ppm (A. marmelos) + 400 ppm (M. piperita), highlighting the potential of these botanical extracts as ecofriendly alternatives.
