Abstract

Nowadays, the most emerging disease which is arthropod borne disease cannot be prevented from vaccines and become a potential threat especially in tropical world such as America, Africa and Asia and has become a trend (Al-Hashemi et al., 2016; Biswas et al., 2002; Brian et al., 2011). One of the preventive measures is by using extracted neem oil blended into lotions for daily usage. According to Ayurveda medicine, neem (AzadirachtinIndica A. Juss) oil is widely used as a pesticide agent in India which reduce insect feeding and acts a repellent (Costa et al., 2017; Dubey et al., 2014).
