A method for repelling arthropods involving treating an object or area with an arthropod repelling effective amount of at least one compound having the formula  wherein X is O, S, NH, N-NH, N-CHor CH, R' is H or alkyl, R&#x2033; is alkyl, n is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, and mixtures thereof, optionally including a carrier material or carrier. The compound is preferably selected from homopiperazine, 1-methylhomopiperazine, 1-methylpyrrolidine, (R)-(&#x2212;)-2-methylpiperazine, (S)-(+)-2-methylpiperazine, 2-methylpiperazine, 1-methylpiperazine, pyrrolidine, 1-methylpiperidine, piperidine, 1-ethylpiperazine, 1-methylimidazolidine, 1-methylthiomorpholine, 1,4-dimethylpiperazine, homopiperidine, imidazolidine, 4-methylpiperidine, thiomorpholine, 1-amino-4-methylpiperazine, 4-methylmorpholine, azocane, 2,6-dimethylpiperazine, 2,5-dimethylpiperazine, piperazine, 1-methlyhomopiperidine, or mixtures thereof.

Methods and compositions for repelling arthropods

Composition for inhibiting the ability of mosquitoes to locate a target by olfactory emissions of the target comprise a composition of at least one inhibiting compound selected from the group consisting of 3-methyl-1-alkene-3-ols of the formula: and 3-methyl-1-alkyn-3-ols of the formula: wherein Rand Rare each independently a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group containing from 1 to about 12 carbon atoms, in a vehicle base that is a porous or waxy medium. The composition being capable of dispensing the inhibiting compound in an non-lethal amount effective to inhibit the ability of mosquitoes to sense a target in a three dimensional environmental space.
