ABSTRACT:
Described is a method of repelling Musca domestica L. (Diptera:Muscidae), Aedes aegypti, Culex nigripalpus, Aedes atlanticus, Culex salinarius, Aedes vexans, Culex spp., Simulium spp., Psoroferia ferox, Aedes infirmatus, Drosophila melanogaster, Coccinellidae, Anopheles crucians, Psoroferia columbiae, Culicoides spp., and Aedes spp. for a finite period of time from a three-dimensional space inhabitable by these insects consisting essentially of exposing a three-dimensional space to an effective concentration and quantity of geraniol or a geraniol precursor-containing composition consisting essentially of 50-100% geraniol or a geraniol precursor (e.g., geranyloxy-1,3,2-dioxaborinane, digeranyloxydimethylsilane and geranyl glycosides, for example, geranyl 6-O-(alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside) with the remainder of the composition (if indeed the composition is not 100% geraniol) being a compound selected from the group consisting of citronellol and nerol. The above-stated repellents are described to be useful as such or contained in a polymer which can be a biodegradable polymer such as compositions containing a major proportion of poly(epsilon caprolactone) homopolymers.
