Some embodiments include a method of chitosan encapsulation of pesticidal active ingredients. The method includes adding a first active ingredient to a centrifuge, adding a solution containing chitosan into the centrifuge, centrifuging the chitosan-active ingredient mixture to create nanoparticle spheres of a first diameter, collecting the nanoparticle spheres of a first diameter, adding the nanoparticle spheres, a second active ingredient, and a chitosan solution into a centrifuge, and centrifuging to create nanoparticle spheres of a second diameter larger than the first diameter, and collecting the nanoparticle spheres of a second diameter.
