Abstract
Further studies concerning the repellency of extract from fruit of the indigobush showed it to be very repellent to the striped cucumber beetle and the chinch bug for over 12 hrs. It was slightly repellent to 2 spp. of mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti and A. albopictus. , Bites were received after 1 to 27 min. exposures. Little toxic effect was shown on any of the insects during these tests.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
