SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING INTRUSIVE INSECT POPULATIONS VIA THE VOLATILE COMPONENTS OF THE OTANTHUS MARITIMUS, CRITHMUM MARITIMUM AND INULA CRISTHMOIDES PLANTS

摘要

The present invention relates to the development of systems for repelling insects of the hymenoptera species (aunts), diptera (mosquitoes), isoptera (termites) and coleoptera (wood eating insects) by the components contained in the essential oils ofthe Otanthus maritimus, Crithmum maritimum and Inula crithmoides plants. Furthermore, systems for the controlled release of these components by formation of inclusion complexes of the drastic components with oligosaccharides of the b-cyclodextrin type are also developed.
