[1] It's the oil from the ginger plant that can be an ingredient in organic insecticides. [2] But it's far cheaper, easier, and effective to use horticultural or neem oils, or insecticidal soap. [3] And particularly insecticidal soap can be either store-bought, or homemade. The homemade version's simply a dishwater soap spray. The ratio is 1:1. The measure's typically tablespoon to cup or quart, depending upon the desired strength and speed of results.
The ginger content depends upon the type of organic insecticide in question. For example, organic insecticides may limit the content to ginger diluted in water, at the proportion of one tablespoon per gallon of water. Or they may mix similar quantities of ginger with diluted garlic or with vinegar.

How do you make insecticide lemon grass napthalene ginger?
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.

Which emits worse odors garbage with a high organic content ie meats fish vegetables or garbage with a low organic content ie paper glass?
Garbage with a high organic content, such as meats, fish, and vegetables, tends to emit stronger and more unpleasant odors compared to garbage with a low organic content, like paper and glass. This is because organic materials decompose and produce gases like ammonia and sulfides, contributing to the foul smell.
