"SYNTHETIC PYRETHRUM OIL BASE"
Since the pyrethrum shortage has pushed prices up on fogging compounds, synthetics have become more popular. Here are some oil based formulations which work well. Click

Permethrin
Pyrethrum is a powerful, rapidly acting herbal mosquito repellent, originally derived from the crushed and dried flowers of the daisy Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium [100]. Permethrin is
a human-made synthetic pyrethroid. It does not repel insects but works as a contact insecticide, causing nervous system toxicity that leads to the death or "knockdown" (out of the air) of
the insect. The chemical is effective against mosquitoes, flies, ticks, and chiggers. Permethrin has low toxicity in mammals, is poorly absorbed by the skin, and is rapidly inactivated by
ester hydrolysis [101].
Permethrin should be applied directly to clothing or other fabrics (such as tent walls [102] or mosquito nets [103]), not to skin. The spray form is nonstaining, nearly odorless, and
resistant to degradation by heat or sun and maintains its potency for at least 2 weeks, even through several launderings [104,105]. The combination of permethrin-treated clothing and
skin application of a DEET-based repellent creates a formidable barrier against mosquito bites [19,106,107]. In a field trial conducted in Alaska, persons wearing permethrin-treated
uniforms and a polymer-based 35% DEET product had more than 99.9% protection (1 bite/h) over 8 hours, even under conditions of intense biting pressures; unprotected persons
received an average of 1188 bites/h [108].
Permethrin-based herbal mosquito repellent available in the United States are listed in Table 5. To apply to clothing, spray each side of the fabric (outdoors) for 30 to 45 seconds, just
enough to moisten it. Allow the garment to dry for 2 to 4 hours before wearing it.
Plant-Derived herbal mosquito repellents
Thousands of plants have been tested as potential sources of insect repellents [39,40,87]. None of the plant-derived chemicals tested to date demonstrate the broad effectiveness and
duration of DEET, but a few show repellent activity. Plants whose essential oils have
been reported to have repellent activity include citronella, cedar, verbena, pennyroyal, geranium, lavender, pine, cajeput, cinnamon, rosemary, basil, thyme, allspice, garlic, and
peppermint [40,88-91]. Unlike synthetic insect repellents, plant-derived repellents have
been relatively poorly studied. When tested, most of these essential oils tended to give short-lasting protection, usually less than 2 hours. Readily available plant-derived insect
repellents are listed in Table 5.
Citronella
Citronella is the active ingredient most commonly found in "natural" or "herbal" insect repellents marketed in the United States. It is registered with the EPA as an insect repellent.
Citronella oil has a lemony scent and was originally extracted from the grass plant Cymbopogon nardus. Limited data are available from studies that directly compared the efficacy of
citronella-based products with that of DEET-based products. In one study, 0.01 micromol of DEET per L of air was sufficient to prevent 90% of mosquitoes from landing on their targets;
a 1000-fold higher concentration of citronellol (one of the active chemicals in citronella oil) was required to achieve a similar effect [31].
Studies show that citronella can be an effective repellent, but it provides shorter complete protection time than most DEET-based products. Frequent reapplication of the repellent can
partially compensate for this. The manufacturer of Natrapel (Tender Corp., Littleton, New Hampshire) has laboratory data showing that their 10% lotion reduced mosquito bites by 84%
during a 4-minute test period. In contrast, 14% DEET reduced biting by 96% in the same test period. Buzz Away (Quantum, Inc., Eugene, Oregon) with 5% citronella oil provided an
average protection time of 1.9 hours against Aedes aegypti [92]. In field testing, Buzz Away Oil provided an average of 88% repellency during a 2-hour exposure. In general, the
repellency of Buzz Away was greatest within the first 40 minutes after application and decreased over the remainder of the test period [93].
Citronella candles have been promoted as an effective way to repel mosquitoes in the backyard. One study compared the ability of commercially available 3% citronella candles, 5%
citronella incense, and plain candles to prevent bites by Aedes mosquitoes under field conditions [94]. Persons near the citronella candles had 42% fewer bites than controls, who had
no protection (a statistically significant difference). However, burning ordinary candles reduced the number of bites by 23%. The efficacy of citronella incense and plain candles did not
differ. The ability of plain candles to decrease biting may result from their action as a decoy source of warmth, moisture, and carbon dioxide.
The citrosa plant (Pelargonium citrosum 'van Leenii') has been marketed as being able to repel mosquitoes through the continuous release of citronella oils. Unfortunately, when
tested, these plants offer no protection against bites [95,96].
PRODUCTS
A lot of work has been done to eradicate the mosquito menace but not much success has been achieved. The main reason for these debacles are the sub standard products, which
have invaded the markets to which these skeeters have developed their defenses. Our natural mosquito repellent product range has been launched after a path breaking R&D
exercise and caters to our consumer's health needs. We have a very exhaustive product range where every small specification has been taken into consideration.
