But not all mosquitoes are equal nor are all repellents. These, explains Camps, They can be chemical (synthesis), as diethylmethyl-benzamide (ten to forty percent), piperidinecarboxylic acid the (from 10 to 20 percent) or permethrin (between 1,5 and five percent), or natural, such as citronella oil or ecucaliptus or basil. The most effective and durable, adds vocal, up to eight hours, is the diethyl-methylbenzamide or DEET, considered, according to her, repellent reference and commonly used for repelling mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and flies, but is not effective with wasps and abejas.Los derived from plants are effective but its effect does not last more than two or three hours, so that its application must be repeated after that time, states.
