Abstract
A method for control of insects on plant tissue which includes applying a solution tht includes hydrogen peroxide to the plant tissue. The hydrogen peroxide solution has a concentration of between 0.05 to 3.00%. In some cases the hydrogen peroxide solution has a concentration of between 0.05 and 1.5%. Some forms of the invention may utilize a hydrogen peroxide solution that further includes an acid selected from the group consisting of acetic acid and phosphoric acid. Various structures are used for applying the hydrogen peroxide solution such as hydraulic spraying, misting, fogging, or injecting the hydrogen peroxide into a commercial cooling system. In some cases the hydrogen peroxide solution is applied to the plant tissue at a variety of stages in the plant production cycle. Other application of the invention include applying misting the hydrogen peroxide solution over terminal stem cuttings until they reach root sufficiency.
