Introduction
Herbal mosquito agarbattis are gaining popularity as a natural alternative to chemical repellents. These agarbattis combine traditional incense practices with the mosquito-repelling properties of natural ingredients.
How Herbal Mosquito Agarbattis Repel Mosquitoes
Herbal mosquito agarbattis utilize the volatile compounds released upon burning to interfere with the sensory perception of mosquitoes, thereby repelling them.
Active Ingredients
Key ingredients typically include:
- Citronella Oil: Contains geraniol and citronellal, known to repel mosquitoes.
- Lemongrass Oil: Rich in citral and limonene.
- Neem Oil: Contains azadirachtin, which is toxic to mosquitoes.
- Eucalyptus Oil: Contains eucalyptol that affects mosquito sensors.
Mechanism of Action
Upon burning, these agarbattis release smoke that contains volatile compounds affecting the olfactory receptors of mosquitoes. These compounds create an environment where the presence of humans is masked, reducing mosquito attraction.
Efficacy and Statistics
Multiple studies indicate the following efficacy rates when herbal mosquito agarbattis are utilized:
- A reduction in mosquito landings by approximately 75% in test environments.
- Smoke affects mosquitoes within a range of 3 meters.
- Effectiveness lasts for an average of 2-3 hours post-burning.
