Social insects such as ants‚ bees‚ termites‚ and wasps‚ provide us with a powerful metaphor for creating decentralized problem-solving systems composed of simple‚ interacting‚ and often mobile‚ agents. The emergent collective intelligence of social insects lies not in complex individual capabilities but in networks of interactions that exist among individuals and between individuals and their colonies. The daily problems solved by a social insect colony include the following: finding food‚ building

An insect repellent is a substance applied to skin‚ clothing‚ or other surfaces which discourages insects (and arthropods in general) from landing or climbing on that surface.

All the synthetics gave almost 100% repellency for the first 2 hours‚ where
