We devised a method for screening various Substances for possible aphid repellency . Corn leaf aphids (Rhopalosiphum maidis) were released in an arena and allowed to select paired green tiles coated with petroleum jelly alone or pctroleuni Jelly containing 1% of file substance being tested. Aphids adhering to tiles were Counted 24 h later. 11 significantly fewer aphids landed on treated tiles, file Substance was considered to have potential for repelling aphids. Fifty-five substances were tested. Most showed no activity, but several including beta-citronellol, farnesol, geraniol, linalool, oils distilled from several species of Artemisia and Achillea millefolia (yarrow) oil showed sonic promise.
