1results about How to "Reduce bites" patented technology

This invention provides the application of compounds in attracting or controlling midges, relating to the field of midge control technology. Through screening and identification, this invention has obtained five compounds (butyric acid, butyraldehyde, propionaldehyde, 2-hexanone, and acetophenone) with significant attractant activity against Formosan midge. These compounds can be used alone or in combination, are environmentally friendly and have a high affinity for non-target organisms, greatly enriching the candidate resource of midge attractants. They can be directly applied to the monitoring and large-scale trapping of midges, effectively reducing midge population density, thereby reducing midge bites and the spread of midge-borne diseases, which has significant public health implications.
