Abstract
In one aspect, the invention relates to binary compositions that disrupt ORco-mediated odorant sensing. In particular, compounds and compositions are provided that can inhibit sensory (e.g., host targeting) functions in organisms that express ORco receptors such as airborne insects, e.g., mosquitos, and ticks. Methods of employing such agents, and articles incorporating the same, are also provided. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.
