Farfalla Defense
Insects are the most successful life form on this planet. Even if plants and fungi are included, over 60% of all living things worldwide are insects. So far, almost a million species of insects have been discovered and scientifically recorded. However, many researchers believe that there could be 6-9 million species. The history of insects, which began over 350 million years ago, is just as record-breaking as their diversity. Several geological ages before the appearance of the dinosaurs, the insects had already spread over the primal continent Pangea. Since then, they have become an indispensable pillar for our planet's ecosystem. The majority of all flowering plants must be pollinated by insects in order to reproduce. In this way they ensure the continued existence of the plant world and thus also provide the basis of the survival of many animals and humans. Of the 100 most commonly grown crops, almost 90% depend on pollinating insects.
Insects are also essential for the health of the forests. Some species help to break down dead wood, while others utilize the excrement and carcasses of wild animals. Despite their important role in the ecosystem, insects are perceived very differently. Most people react positively to bees, bumblebees, dragonflies, ladybugs or butterflies. Other insects, on the other hand, are considered pests. Nobody wants clothes moths or woodworms in their house. Potato beetles and locusts can cause great damage in the fields. Even today, plagues of locusts regularly destroy much of the crops in some countries. Correct pest control is a permanent challenge in modern agriculture. Because a lot of what can be used against pests also has a negative effect on beneficial insects.
Away from the fields and meadows, mosquitoes are by far the most unpopular insects. They are particularly annoying on mild summer evenings when you want to have a barbecue or try to enjoy nice a glass of wine on the terrace. There are numerous sprays and lotions to keep the flying pests at bay. But many of them use chemical ingredients that many people would like to do without. However, there is a natural alternative: essential oils. Insects also find the scent of certain plants unpleasant and avoid their proximity. With a special mixture of such fragrances, Farfalla uses the deterrent effect of essential oils against the stinging pests.
