K., A. scoparioides Grossh., A. annua L., A. maritima L., A. marschalliana Spreng., A. pausiflora Web.ex Stechm., A. tournefortiana Rchb., A. hanseniana Grossh. genus Artemisia L. It is revealed repellent effects of essential oils for 3–8 hours.Duration of repellent action depends on the major component of essential oils.
