Data of insecticide action of a nanoemulsion of Citronella essential oil on Cochliomyia hominivorax blowfly.

ABSTRACT: Cochliomyia hominivorax is the dipteran that causes the worst and most serious types of myiasis in animals and humans in the Americas. The data described here show the effects of a commercial product formulated on the basis of citronella essential oil nanoemulsified (Nano Citronela Plus®) directly on eggs, first, second and third stage larvae of the C. hominivorax blowfly, in addition to the indirect effect on the oviposition of adult flies. These data make up the gross base that was used in the preparation of the article "Repellent, ovicidal, larvicidal and adulticidal action of a nanoemulsion of Citronella essential oil (Cymbopogon winterianus) on Cochliomyia hominivorax (Diptera: Calliphoridae)" Bricarello et al., 2021. Counting data of larvae, eggs and adult flies live and dead after contact with the product, data on weighing and counting of eggs from the repellency test are available, as well as photos of cuticular changes that occurred in the larvae and malformations observed after contact with Nano Citronela Plus®.
