Four commercial repellents were evaluated in the laboratory against Leptotrombidium deliense chiggers. Both in vitro and in vivo methods were used to determine repellency of the compounds. The repellents were Kellis (containing citronella oil, jojoba oil and tea tree oil), Kaps (containing citronella oil), BioZ (containing citronella oil, geranium oil and lemon grass oil) and Off (containing DEET). The combination of three active ingredients: citronella oil, geranium oil, lemon grass oil gave the highest repellency (87%) followed by DEET (84%). In vitro repellencies ranged from 73% to 87%. There was no significant difference between the four products. All the repellents had 100% in vivo repellency compared to 41-57% for the controls.
在实验室中对四种市售驱虫剂进行了针对地里纤恙螨的评估。采用体外和体内方法来确定这些化合物的驱避性。这些驱虫剂分别是凯利斯（含有香茅油、荷荷巴油和茶树油）、卡普斯（含有香茅油）、生物Z（含有香茅油、天竺葵油和柠檬草油）和欧护（含有避蚊胺）。三种活性成分香茅油、天竺葵油、柠檬草油的组合具有最高的驱避性（87%），其次是避蚊胺（84%）。体外驱避率在73%至87%之间。这四种产品之间没有显著差异。与对照组41%-57%的驱避率相比，所有驱虫剂的体内驱避率均为100%。
