“…Therapeutic properties of camphor oil are antifungal, analgesic, antidepressant, anti‐inflammatory, antiseptic, carminative, diuretic, febrifuge, hypertensive, insecticidal, laxative, rubefacient, stimulant, sudorific, vermifuge, and vulnerary (Deng and others ; Pragadheesh and others ). Recently, a new and safe product was developed from camphor oil for controlling poultry lice (Khater and others ). Chang and others () encapsulated camphor oil using gelatin‐GA microcapsules prepared by complex coacervation to achieve encapsulation efficiency of 99.6 wt% at an optimal oil/wall volume ratio of 0.75 and found that the sustained oil release amount and the release rate depended on the quantity of added polystyrene.…”

Microencapsulation is a process of building a functional barrier between the core and wall material to avoid chemical and physical reactions and to maintain the biological, functional, and physicochemical properties of core materials. Microencapsulation of marine, vegetable, and essential oils has been conducted and commercialized by employing different methods including emulsification, spray-drying, coaxial electrospray system, freeze-drying, coacervation, in situ polymerization, melt-extrusion, supercritical fluid technology, and fluidized-bed-coating. Spray-drying and coacervation are the most commonly used techniques for the microencapsulation of oils. The choice of an appropriate microencapsulation technique and wall material depends upon the end use of the product and the processing conditions involved. Microencapsulation has the ability to enhance the oxidative stability, thermostability, shelf-life, and biological activity of oils. In addition, it can also be helpful in controlling the volatility and release properties of essential oils. Microencapsulated marine, vegetable, and essential oils have found broad applications in various fields. This review describes the recognized benefits and functional properties of various oils, microencapsulation techniques, and application of encapsulated oils in various food, pharmaceutical, and even textile products. Moreover, this review may provide information to researchers working in the field of food, pharmacy, agronomy, engineering, and nutrition who are interested in microencapsulation of oils.

“…The crude Mentha (Mentha piperita) oil diluted with methanol also caused 100% motality to a L. lawrensis tropicalis in 48 hours (Khan et al, 2008). Khater et al (2013) found that 1% camphor oil and d phenothrin killed the tested pigeon lice, Columbicola columbae within one hour. Likewise, Almusawi (2017) noted the potent anti-lice property of Ziziphus mauritiana alkaloids and Eucaylptus camaldulensis against poultry lice Menacanthus stramineus and recorded its LC 50 values as 3.687and 1.045, respectively.…”

“…Workers likes Abdel-Ghaffar et al (2012), Campli et al (2012) and Yones et al (2016) have tested the lousicidal properties of certain plant extracts against human head lice. The lousicidal efficacy of camphor oil has been tested against a pigeon louse ( Khater et al, 2013). Effect of garlic (Allium setivum) on the goat lice Bovicola caprae has been studied by Lakshmanan et al (2013).…”

Extensive and indiscriminate use of organic lousicides is leading to environmental hazards i.e. persistence of residues, development of resistance and targeting of non-target beneficial organism. Hence, phytotherapy is emerging as effective tool for louse control, due to ecofriendly and biodegradable nature of plant extracts. In the present study the mortality and repellency caused by five concentration of aqueous extract of the leaves of commonly available Datura stramineus were tested against goat biting louse, Bovicola caprae. Fifteen percent concentration of extract prepared from leaves of aforesaid plant imparted 77% mortality and 66% repellency to goat biting louse.

“…In addition to the previously mentioned biological control agents, parasites could also be controlled naturally through botanicals [163][164][165][166][167], photosensitizers [168,169], symbiotic [170], organic [171] and short-chain fatty acids [172]. Biological control approaches hold promise as the most suitable alternative to the chemical pesticides and are now a core component of IPM.…”

Natural Remedies in the Fight Against Parasites

Parasites (ectoparasites or endoparasites) are a major cause of diseases in man, his livestock and crops, leading to poor yield and great economic loss. To overcome some of the major limitations of chemical control methods such as rising resistance, environmental and health risks, and the adverse effect on non-target organisms, biological control (biocontrol) is now at the forefront of parasite (pests) control. Biocontrol is now a core component of the integrated pest management. Biocontrol is defined as "the study and uses of parasites, predators and pathogens for the regulation of host (pest) densities". Considerable successes have been achieved in the implementation of biocontrol strategies in the past. This chapter presents a review of the history of biocontrol, its advantages and disadvantages; the different types of biological control agents (BCAs) including predators, parasites (parasitoids) and pathogens (fungi, bacteria, viruses and virus-like particles, protozoa and nematodes); the effect of biocontrol on native biodiversity; a few case studies of the successful implementation of biocontrol methods and the challenges encountered with the implementation of biocontrol and future perspectives.
