An elongate insect repellant barrier for application to the exterior of a building. The barrier is formed of a backing extending in a substantially vertical direction when applied to the exterior of a building, a bottom surface extending from the backing, and a lip formed along the front edge thereof. The backing, bottom surface and lip form a trough along the length of the barrier, and an upper angled surface slopes downwardly from the backing and extends outwardly from the backing to overhang the lip along the length of the elongate barrier. The trough is filled with a mixture of mineral oil, or other light oil, and water, from which crawling insects attempting to enter the building fall as they reach the top of the lip on the front edge of the elongate member and are unlikely to escape, and the overhanging angled surface protects the oil and water mixture in the trough from being affected by ambient weather conditions.
