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., Aedes spp. and Haematobia for a finite period of time from a three dimensional space inhabited by at least one of such insect species consisting essentially of the step of exposing a three dimensional space to an effective insect species member repelling concentration and quantity of a dimethyl substituted oxymethyl cyclohexane derivative-containing composition of matter defined according to the structure: ##STR1## 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. The above-stated repellents are also useful in conjunction with a washing soap whereby the insect repelling composition is initially admixed with a soap base; the resulting mixture is formulated into a soap article; and the resulting soap article is used in a washing procedure on a member of the mammalian species.
