Abstract
The protocol describes a laboratory assay to test the repellency of an
essential oil using a modified dual-choice chamber assay system. The assay
assesses the movement of the mosquito away from or towards the essential oil.
The modified system detects repellency. Mosquito responses to repellent
compounds can be evaluated in a laboratory dual-choice chamber system.
