Abstract: Mosquitoes are increasing threat for millions of people worldwide. Repellents minimize contact with mosquitoes, playing crucial role in control of mosquito-borne diseases. Botanical repellents have been used as alternatives to synthetic chemical insect repellents for botanicals reputedly pose little concern to the environment or to human health. But botanical repellents are still lacking in the market. Ethnobotany offers another effective way for science and product research of new resources. This review summarizes progress on mosquito repellent plants based on ethnobotany literatures, categorizes ethnobotany information of mosquito repellent plants, summarizes the common screening and evaluation methods of mosquito repellent plants, analyzes the traditional knowledge in domestic and abroad in repelling mosquitoes. Finally, we put forward the key points and direction of developing mosquito-repellent plants, to provide methods and ideas for further discovering new resources and new products.
