Chemical, physical, mechanical and biological methods for mosquito repelling are reported in literature. Various plant essential oils are used for mosquito repelling from ancient ages. Studies and research on mosquito repellent is generally aimed at cost reduction and increasing effectivity. Current review summarizes research and studies on mosquito repellents.
