Use of plant-derived products to control household and structural arthropod pests

“…In this experiment, first instar nymphs were more sensitive than the fourth instar nymphs followed by adults. Consequently, LT50 values in continuous exposure test correlated negatively with concentration [11]. A dose of 10,000-80,000 ppm (1-8%) of essential oil of Piper aduncum L. deterred only nymphs [12] whereas oil of C. citratus gave 100% repellency to adults after 24 h of application [13].…”
