Commercial repellent treatments incorporating plant-based components have recently gained favourable among users due to the fact They are considered “safe” in compared to long-established synthetic repellents however, this is usually not accurate. Many essential oils included in insect repellents and insecticides are very volatile, which adds to their short lifespan as insect repellents. This problem, however, can be resolved by adding fixatives to increase their lifespan. The objective of developing this organic repellent is to give a productive, totally natural preventive solution to repel cold-blooded and harmful insects. The aim of this project is to produce an organic repellent utilizing chrysanthemum oil and chrysanthemum oil + peppermint oil, and to test the efficacy of both end products. The experimental results exhibited that all three-parameter concentration revealed significant influence on 5 ml, 7 ml and 9 ml given the average mortality time of killing was 2.62 min, 2.34 min, and 3.38 min, respectively, as Chrysanthemum oil and Chrysanthemum oil + peppermint oil that the average mortality time of killing was 2.81 min, 3.04 min, and 2.79 min to cold-blooded insects such as cockroach, flies, and ants. As a result, there is a need to analysed natural materials as biopesticides since they are harmless to humans and the environment. Knowledge gained from ethnobotanical studies on traditional repellent plants is a great resource for the creation of new natural products. |
