<p>Repellent compositions which contain aromatic aldehydes such as cinnamic aldehyde, α-hexyl cinnamic aldehyde and/or coniferyl aldehyde are provided, together with methods for their use as repellents for pests including flies, cockroaches, aphids, silverleaf white flies, mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, lice, leafhoppers, thrips, two spotted spider mites, snails, slugs, biting midges, earwigs, and moths. Also provided are stabilized α-hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (HCA) compositions which reduce the evaporation rate of HCA compared with unformulated HCA, and/or induce HCA to evaporate at a constant rate over time.</p> |
