Mosquito-borne diseases like malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, and chikungunya is major public health problem around the world, especially in tropical and subtropical regions like Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Controlling mosquito vectors is one of the main ways to prevent and cure these diseases. Although synthetic insecticides are widely used for mosquito control, there are growing concerns about their impact on the environment, the rise of insecticide resistance, and their harmful effects on human health and other organisms. Because of this, there is need of alternative method such as traditional methods that involve herbal plants. Medicinal plants have been used in traditional medicine for many years, with many known for their ability to repel insects. These herbal plants contain a wide range of natural chemicals, including essential oils, alkaloids, terpenoids, and flavonoids, which help keep mosquitoes away.
