Fuente: WIPO "tomato" Control or repellency of one or more pests is obtained by disrupting intraspecific communication or interspecific communication in the one or more pests, by exposing the one or more pests to a formulation comprising one or more compounds of structure (A) represented by the structure: wherein the one or more compounds of structure (A) are present in an amount from about 0.001 % by weight to about 99% by weight, based on the total weight of the formulation. The one or more pests are selected from agricultural pests, forestry pests, storage pests, urban pests, and public health pests. The intraspecific communications include pheromone-mediated communications associated with mating and aggregation behavior, the effect of sexual and aggregation pheromones, and attraction in general. The interspecific communications include allelochemical communications associated with oviposition behavior, and attraction effect of crops and other substrates, and visual mediated communications associated with attraction behavior.
