“…In summary, the present study on different structural variants of 4-methylguaiacol, a constituent of cattle anal odour repellent to the brown ear tick (Kariuki et al, 2018), identified 4-propylguaiacol as the most repellent analogue. We are currently evaluating the effect of microencapsulated controlled-release of this analogue at cattle ears on ticks placed at different location on the animal.…”

“…Most of the brown ear ticks released at different sites of the animals also failed to locate their predilection sites and dropped off to the ground. Recently, the major constituents of the odour were characterized and assayed in climbing assays (Kariuki et al, 2018). The most active compound was found to be 4-methylguaiacol.…”
