This research investigates the mosquito repellent activity of creams formulated with extracts from Ocimum gratissimum and Lantana camara against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The study found that these natural formulations provided significant protection without causing allergic reactions, with the best results observed from specific combinations of the extracts. The findings suggest that these plant-based repellents could serve as effective alternatives to conventional chemical repellents like DEET.
