Insecticides have active and inert ingredients. It is the active ingredient that ultimately makes the insecticide work. Ginger oil can be made by collecting the drops from steaming the ginger root. But it is a skin irritant. And so the end product must be hugely diluted. The oil ends up accounting for less than 1% of the product. Lemon grass oil is not an active ingredient. Naphthalene is the active ingredient in moth balls.

Do you mean biological insecticide or botanical insecticide? the terms are close, but they describe two different things. A botanical insecticide is one that is obtained from a botanical (plant) source - examples of this are Neem oil, Nicotine, Citronella, Tagetes extract etc. The active ingredient in the insecticide may be toxic (as in the case of Neem and Nicotine), or may only offer deterrent value such as Citronella oil (for flies and mosquito's). A biological insecticide (also called biological control) is where a insect, fungus or virus is bred and released into the wild (or onto a target species) in order to kill the other species. In most cases the bred control species is a natural predator of the pest insect. A good example of this is breeding Ladybirds and releasing them into the garden, the adult as well as the larval stage predate on aphids and mealy bugs.

A microsphere is a solid matrix particle whereas a microcapsule has an inner core and an outer shell. The active ingredient in a solid matrix particle is typically dissolved or melted in the same vessel as the active ingredient before Precision Particle Fabrication processing into microspheres. The microcapsule corecan be either liquid (oil or water) or solid and typically contains the active ingredient. The shell of a microcapsule is typically a polymer or wax.
