It is a great mosquito, and insect repellent, and has been used as a bio-pesticide in many countries. Various studies have proven that citronella oil also contains anti-fungal properties. The oil can calm down a barking dog to other pet animals. There are two varieties of citronella oils available in the market, i.e. Ceylon Citronella oil, and Java Ceylon Oil. Ceylon citronella oil is extracted from Cymbopogon nardus Rendle, and considered to be originated from Sri Lanka.
The major composition of Ceylon citronella oil includes approximately 18 to 20 percent geraniol, 5 to 15 percent citronellal, 6 to 8 percent citronellol, 9 to 11 percent limonene, and 7 to 11 percent methyl isoeugenol. Whereas, in case of Java Ceylon oil, the oil is derived from Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt, it is darker in color and, gives a lemony odor. Both types of oil have their own advantages, but in some cases, the quality of Java Ceylon oil is considered superior than the quality of Ceylon Citronella oil.
According to the composition of the Java Ceylon citronella oil, approximately 21 to 24 percent of geraniol, 32 to 45 percent of citronellal, 11 to 15 percent of citronellol, 3 to 8 percent of geranyl acetate, and 1 to 4 percent of limonene are found in it.
