l-Carvone is a constituent of essential oil consisting of monoterpene ketone that possesses various medicinal properties. In this context, the present study focuses on the fabrication and assessment of electrospun poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(vinylalcohol blend nanofibers imbibed with l-Carvone (5%, w/v) that served as a suitable polymeric carrier to preserve the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of l-Carvone for a longer period of time. The fumigant potential of l-Carvone and C-PP fibers were assessed toward saw-toothed beetle, a major pest found in stored products. The prepared fragrant C-PP fibers displayed a promising potential formulation for the control of stored product pest such as saw-toothed beetle.
