Journal ArticleDOI
Insecticidal, repellent and oviposition-deterrent activity of selected essential oils against Anopheles stephensi, Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus.
TL;DR: The essential oils of Juniperus macropoda and Pimpinella anisum were highly effective as both larvicidal and ovicidal, and Zingiber officinale and Rosmarinus officinalis were found to be ovicidal and repellent, respectively towards the three mosquito species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repellency and toxicity of oil from Artemisia annua to certain stored-product beetles.
TL;DR: It was found that oil from A. annua was largely responsible for both repellent (behavioral) and toxic (physiological) actions on 2 species of insect tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Essential oil extracted from the leaves of turmeric, Curcuma longa L., was investigated for contact and fumigant toxicity and its effect on progeny production in three stored-product beetles, Rhyzopertha dominica F, S. oryzae and T. castaneum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity, feeding deterrence, and effect of activity of 1,8-cineole from Artemisia annua on progeny production of Tribolium castanaeum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae).
TL;DR: The adults of T. castaneum were more susceptible than larvae to both contact and fumigant toxicity of 1,8-cineole, and LD50 and LC50 values of 108.4 μg/mg body weight of adult insect and 1.52 mg/liter air were found, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of d-Limonene on Three Stored-Product Beetles
TL;DR: In this paper, d-limonene was investigated for contact and fumigant toxicity, ovicidal effects, oviposition-deterrent, development inhibition, and feeding-detecting activities against three stored-product beetles (Coleoptera): lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F. castaneum), rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L. oryzaa), and red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneuma (Herbst).
