“…Cinnamon oil and its primary component, cinnamaldehyde, have been found to disrupt the structure of antennal receptors (damage to sensilla was observed under the scanning electron microscope) in red fire worker ants of the genus Solenopsis (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). This disruption leads to a decrease in octopamine content and, consequently, impairs the ants' social behavior and the ability to recognize their nest mates [88].…”

The need to use environmentally friendly substances in agriculture for pest control has become increasingly urgent in recent years. This was generated by humanity’s awareness of the harmful effects of chemicals with increased persistence, which accumulated in nature and harmed living beings. Essential oils are among the most important biopesticides and could significantly contribute to the expansion of ecological agriculture, replacing traditional methods. However, for judicious use, it is necessary to have a thorough knowledge of the mechanisms by which these oils act on both harmful and useful insects. An important step in transitioning from theory to practice is adapting essential oil application technologies for open fields, overcoming the difficulties created by their high volatility and low remanence, which results in a rapid reduction in the toxic effect. The review proposes an in-depth, up-to-date analysis of the existing literature on these subjects, aiming to provide researchers with some potential future study directions and practitioners with a solid base of information regarding the interaction between insects and essential oils.
