Repellent and fumigant toxic potential of three essential oils against Ephestia kuehniella

Abstract: Essential oils, when used as bio-insecticides in the control of insect pests of stored grains have shown specificity and variation in the potentiality of their mode of action. In the present study, three essential oils extracted from three aromatic plants of different families, white wormwood (Artemisia herba alba, Asteraceae), oregano (Origanum vulgare, Lamiaceae) and rue (Ruta montana, Rutaceae), were evaluated for their repellent and fumigant toxic potential against the flour moth larvae, Ephestia kuehniell… Show more

“…Essential oils are well-known for their bioactivities, e.g., antimicrobial and antioxidant, and have long been used in different traditional medicine systems as well as in modern medicine, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical products [ 29 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 ]. Their applications as an insecticidal, larvicidal, nematocidal, pesticidal, phytotoxic, and insect-repellent agents are also well-documented [ 93 , 94 , 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 , 113 , 114 , 115 , 116 ]. Ruta essential oils found their way into various traditional medicinal products, and a significant body of literature could establish their bioactivities and medicinal potential [ 4 ].…”

“…There are only a handful of reports available on the larvicidal activity of the essential oil from R. montana . The essential oil of R. montana was assessed for the larvae-repellent and larvicidal activities against the flour moth ( Ephestia kuehniella ) larvae [ 111 ]. Interestingly, instead of larvae-repellent, this essential oil demonstrated larvae-attractant activity.…”

“…The oil of R. montana showed attractant activity against the larvae and was the most toxic, with 56.7% of larval mortality in the first 24 h. The median lethal concentrations (LC 50 ) recorded were 11.6, 175.4 and 1100.0 µL/L air for the plant oils R. montana, O. vulgare and A. herba-alba, respectively. R. montana and O. vulgare essential oils were shown to be efficient, with high toxic and repellent properties against E. kuehniella larvae [156]. The lethal concentration values of O. basilicum, Mentha pulegium and Ruta graveolens were, respectively, 0.96, 0.3 and 1.02 µL/L air on E. kuehniella [201].…”
