Frequent Use

The mosquito Aedes aegypti is an epidemic vector of several diseases such as dengue fever and yellow fever. Several pesticides are used to control the mosquito population. Because of their frequent use, some mosquitoes have developed resistance. In the present study, we evaluated the synergistic mosquito-repellent activity of essential oils from Pelargonium radula, Syzgium aromaticum and Citrus aurantifolia against Aedes aegypti by using Y-tube olfactometer. The oils was subsequently analyzed by using GC–MS. These results clearly reveal that the essential oil of C. aurantifolia served as the most potent repellent agent against Aedes aegypti . The results indicate that three constituents; limonene (19.58%) followed by β–pinene (17.12%), geraniol (13.23%) which comprise a large proportion of the C. aurantifolia are likely responsible for the observed repellent activity.

Due to diminishing man-vector contact, repellency is an important way of preventing vector borne diseases. Mosquitoes control and peoples protection from biting by the mosquitoes are the most significant ways to prevent the diseases that have been transmitted by the mosquitoes. Usage of repellants, especially herbal smokes, is one of the proper methods to protect individuals. In this study, four herbs include Rosa damascena Mill, Lavandula officinalis, Eucalyptus globulus and Mentha longifolia L were examined. After preparing the essential oil of each herb, with a certain concentration, a cotton fabric was stained by using the herbs and at animal test stage, their repelling property against Culex pipiens mosquito was evaluated. Finally, the repelling effect of the fabric stained with the essential oils with the chemical combination repelling N, N-diethyl 3-methyl benzamid, as (DEET) was compared as well. The results of repelling effect of the essential oils of Rosa damascena Mill, Mentha longifolia L, Lavandula officinalis and Eucalyptus globulus was 83%, 96%, 81% and 85%, respectively. Mentha longifolia L (96%) had the highest repelling effect; however Lavandula officinalis (81%) has the least repelling effect respectively. Thus, this work showed that some herbal essential oils can be used as natural repellent materials to improve public health.

Fumigant Activity

The objectives of this work were the study of the volatile chemical composition of essential oils (EO’s) from Bursera graveolens obtained in the locality of Malagana, municipality of Mahates, Bolívar, Colombia, as well as to evaluate their repellent and fumigant properties. EO’s were extracted by hydro-distillation and characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The major compounds found in B. graveolens were limonene (42.2%), pulegone (20.9%), carvone (7.5%), caryophyllene (4.1%), and trans-carveol (3.8%). The repellent activity of EO’s was determined by the area preference method, where the EO of B. graveolens presented repellent activity against the Tribolium castaneum weevil at a concentration of 1 at 2% and 4 hours of exposure (88.1 and 88.6% respectively). B. graveolens essential oil was more effective in its fumigant activity with LC50 of 108.2 μg oil mL-1. Also, the fumigant and repellent activities of two individual compounds present in the oil were evaluated, that is, limonene (majority) and caryophyllene. The results indicated that B. graveolens essential oil could be a promising alternative to new natural repellents and biocides.
