Prolonged Efficacy of IR3535 Repellents Against Mosquitoes and Blacklegged Ticks in North America [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2008 Here I report the first findings of consistently high, long-duration efficacy of IR3535 (ethyl butyl acetyl aminopropionate) formulations in the United States. I tested novel, controlled-release formulations of IR3535, at 10% in lotion and at 20% in pump spray and aerosol, against mosquitoes in the field and blacklegged ticks in the laboratory.
