“…but may require frequent reapplication to provide some protection against A. aegypti and A. albopictus. 30,32,43,47,48 Overall, we found that picaridin has the most robust data to support it as an alternative to DEET, followed by IR3535 and then oil of lemon eucalyptus. There were no convincing differences in protection between IR3535 and oil of lemon eucalyptus, so we recommend EPA-registered products containing either repellent for patients declining the use of the conventional repellents DEET or picaridin.…”

EPA-Registered Repellents for Mosquitoes Transmitting Emerging Viral Disease

In many parts of the United States, mosquitoes were previously nuisance pests. However, they now represent a potential threat in the spread of viral diseases. The Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, and Culex species mosquitoes are endemic to the United States and together may transmit a variety of viral diseases of growing concern, including West Nile virus, chikungunya, dengue fever, and Zika virus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommend N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) as a first-line mosquito repellent, but for patients refusing to use DEET or other conventional repellents, guidance is limited to any EPA-registered product. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review of the literature to identify which EPA-registered personal mosquito repellent provides the best protection from A. aegypti, A. albopictus, and Culex spp. mosquitoes. We abstracted data from 62 published reports of EPA-registered mosquito repellents. The conventional repellent picaridin has the strongest data to support its use as a second-line agent, while IR3535 and oil of lemon eucalyptus are reasonably effective natural products. Citronella, catnip, and 2-undecanone offer limited protection or have limited data. These results can be used by pharmacists and other health care professionals to advise patients on the selection of an EPA-registered mosquito repellent. Regardless of the repellent chosen, it is vital for patients to follow all instructions/precautions in the product labeling to ensure safe and effective use.

“…Therefore, the high toxicity of this oil may be attributed to one or more of these unique compounds. The synergistic action of essential oil components is common, and many reports confirm this phenomenon involvement in the toxicity and repellent activities of essential oils (Das et al ; Kim et al ; Noosidum et al ). In contrast to the adulticidal toxicity of the tested oils, the T. polium oil was found to be the most repellent.…”

Plants are a prospective source of novel natural insect repellents and botanical insecticides. This study was conducted to investigate the chemical composition of the essential oils of three plants growing in Saudi Arabia, namely Ducrosia anethifolia, Achillea fragrantissima, and Teucrium polium; and to evaluate their potential mosquitocidal and repellent activities against adult female Culex pipiens L. The main components of the three oils were found to be decanal (28.9%) and chrysanthenyl acetate (10.04%), (D. anethifolia); sabinyl acetate (35.79) and artemesia ketone (18.28%) (A. fragrantissima); α‐cadinol (49.53%) and δ‐cadinene (10.23%) (T. polium). The oil of A. fragrantissima was the most toxic (LC50 = 0.11 μL/L air) followed by D. anethifolia and T. polium with LC50 values of 5.22 and 25.98 μL/L air, respectively. T. polium oil was the most repellent (292 min at 2 μL/cm2), followed by D. anethifolia and A. fragrantissima. The results indicate that the essential oils have a potential fumigant insecticidal and repellent activities for mosquito control.

“…It gives an idea that TRPVs in vertebrates and invertebrates are not only mechanotransducers, but also multiple sensory stimuli receptors. Therefore, TRPVs in Aedes aegypti also have a possibility to response for various stimuli such as odorants (Kim et al, 2012;Reegan et al, 2014), humidity and sound. However, it is not known about the expression pattern and localization of TRPV channel proteins in chemo-and mechano-sensory organs.…”
