REPELLENT COMPOSITIONS FOR INSECTS AND OTHER ARTHROPODS

摘要

The invention provides methods and compositions suitable for influencing arthropod behaviour. In one aspect, the invention provides arthropod-repellant compositions of different compounds. Such compositions are useful in masking arthropod-attractant compounds or blends associated with host body odours. Accordingly, such compounds and compositions are useful in controlling arthropod behaviour and in controlling the spread of arthropod-borne diseases.
