Embodiment 1

[0297] In this example, various compositions were formulated for comparative testing. The test compositions included: 1.6% soybean methyl ester emulsion formulated with commercially available sunscreen (composition A); 2.4% soybean methyl ester emulsion formulated with commercially available tropical oil (composition B); 2.4% soy methyl ester emulsion formulated with a commercially available sunscreen of 20 (composition C); in a water-based composition, 4% soy methyl ester emulsion formulated with 8% undecanone (composition D); and 8% Soy Methyl Ester Emulsion in 30% Undecanone (Composition E). All concentrations are by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. Compositions A-E were tested for mosquito and tick repellency.

[0298] The results are listed in Table 1 below.

[0299] Table 1

[0300] Composition A

[0301] The data in Table 1 show that compositions comprising 2.4% and higher concentrations of soy methyl ester exhibit excellent mosquito...

Embodiment 2

[0303] In this comparative test, the same composition as tested in Example 1 (composition E) comprising 8% soy methyl ester emulsion and 30% undecanone was evaluated compared to an untreated control. Tick ​​repellency. The tick repellency of the 0.5% permethrin composition was also evaluated compared to the untreated control.

[0304] All experiments were carried out on paper media introduced with native ticks (Americus americana).

[0305] The test area is a plastic Petri dish with a diameter of 10 cm (bottom surface area 78.5 cm 2 ). The inside bottom surface is covered by two semicircles of white copy paper separated by a 3mm gap at the centerline. A 537 μL sample of Composition E was applied to the left hemifield. Unfed male / female American dog ticks (Dermacenter variabilis) were added to the area within 5 minutes after treatment with composition E. Experiments were performed at room temperature in a dimly lit room. Counted at 2 hours, one tick on the treated side wa...

Embodiment 3

[0311] A test corresponding to Example 2 was carried out on the 0.5% permethrin composition. Tick ​​deaths occurred at 60 min and 2 h counts. The test results are shown in Table 3.

[0312] table 3

[0313]

[0314] By comparing the data in Tables 2 and 3, it was found that Composition E was more effective than the 0.5% permethrin composition throughout the time frame of each trial.

Abstract

Pest-combating compositions containing pest-control actives are formulated for sustained pest-combating efficacy, utilizing actives fatty acids, undecanone, and / or soy methyl ester in varying combinations. Pest-combating includes both repellency and killing of pests. In specific formulations, the pest-combating composition includes any one, two or three of the active agents soy methyl ester, fatty acid and undecanone. Fatty acids may be unmodified or may be modified by transesterification or methanolysis of the oleochemical or conversion of the fatty acids to alkyl esters. The composition may be constituted as a spray composition, lotion, paste, or other compositional form. Pests that may be usefully combated with such composition include aphids, ants, bed bugs, bees, beetles, centipedes, caterpillars, chiggers, cockroaches, crickets, cutworms, earwigs, fleas, flies, fire ants, gnats, grasshoppers, hookworms, japanese beetles, june bugs, lice, locust, maggots, mealworms, mealybugs, millipedes, mites, mosquitoes, moths, pillbugs, scorpions, silverfish, spiders, stinkbugs, termites, thrips, ticks, wasps, and white flies.
