Garlic is toxic when ingested by mosquitoes, scientists say.

Three recent studies found that a new

method of mixing garlic oil with a sugar bait was found to be effective in killing mosquitos. Garlic is a

pungent-smelling herb that has long been advertised as a natural means of repelling mosquitoes by

smearing it on the skin or by consuming it. Natural garlic-based products to be sprayed on the garden

plants are marketed to repel mosquitoes. Dog chews, such as the Bug Off Garlic from Springtime Inc.,

Cockeysville, Md., Are designed to repel mosquitoes and other insects. There is extreme proof that garlic

spray mosquitoes in the garden, the scientists say that scientists say. published in 2005 Human study by

researchers at the University of Connecticut Health Center, found in two days garlic pills when the test

topics were found. (Johannes, 2015) Garlic (Allium sativum) and onion (Allium cepa) are two plants

reported to repel insects. Cole crops, grown near onion and garlic and are less susceptible to insect pest

attacks, are the finest example. Aromas were emitted from the leaves of onion and garlic plants and

excretions from the roots. Their odors and excretions deterred insect attacks; hence they are classified

as insect repellent plants. Garlic (Allium sativum) and onion (Allium cepa) are widely used foods in

various civilizations worldwide. It was hypothesized in this study that an onion and garlic mixture would

have strong insecticidal effect against the red palm weevil (RPW).

(Debra & Misheck, 2014) Garlic (Allium Sativum) has many benefits to our health. Garlic contains anti-

inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, chemopreventive, hepatoprotective, antimicrobial,

apoptotic, cardioprotective, and antidiabetic compounds. The garlic can also protect our cardiovascular,

decrease cholesterol, blood pressure, thromboxane formation, and even anti-platelet activities.

Decreasing the insulin triglycerides, uric acid, and serum glucose levels, as well as insulin resistance and

protection against atherosclerosis and related illnesses, can benefit garlic (Allium Sativum). Besides the

health benefits of garlic (Allium sativum), the latter shows insecticidal effects against coleopteran,
dipteran, lepidopteran, and homopteran insect pests. As a result, its components could be used instead

of traditional insecticides to control fruit and vegetable pests. Garlic herbal remedies can help prevent

non-target pesticide exposure and insect resistance development. (Upadhyay, 2016)

The fundamental source of date palm devastation is red palm weevil infestations, which have been used

to fight natural pesticides. The Rhynchophorus ferrugineus living in the date palms has been one of the

most prominent pesticides in Saudi Arabia. A natural pesticide was produced without causing any side

effects by combining onion and garlic extracts, which can control the Rhynchophorus ferrugineus living

in the date palms in Saudi Arabia.
