Abstract :In this study, fumigant activity of essential oils obtained from five plants insert ignore into journalissuearticles values( Mentha piperita insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Lamiaceae);, Micromeria fruticosa insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Lamiaceae);, Anethum graviolens insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Apiaceae);, Salvia officinalis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Lamiaceae); and Mentha spicata insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Lamiaceae);); were tested against Stegobium paniceum   and Lasioderma serricorne insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Coleptera: Anobidae); in the laboratory condition . For this purpose, essential oils obtained by using Neo-Clavenger apparatus were applied at 20% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(v/v); concentration, dead and live individuals were recorded at the end of 24 hours. Also, fumigant activities of plant essential oils at different temperatures insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(10-15-20-25-30 °C ); was determined . In addition, fumigant activities of eight essential oil components insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Menton, Eugenol, Carvone, Limonene, Menthol, Diapiol, Methyl-eugenol, Linolol); were tested against S. paniceum . At the end of the study, A. graviolens and M. spicata essential oils showed the highest activity for L. serricorne with 97.63% activity and the highest activity was found in M. spicata essential oil with a mortality rate of 97.76% for S. paniceum . Among the essential oil components, Eugenol has the highest fumigant activity of with 60.79% mortality rate. These results indicate that the M. spicata essential oil and eugenol could have significant potential as fumigant in the control of L. serricorne and S. paniceum .
