  • The acaricidal activity of cyenopyrafen on the tea red spider mite, Tetranychus kanzawai was evaluated in laboratory and field studies. In the laboratory, cyenopyrafen was highly effective against egg, larva, protonymph and adult female of T. kanzawai. In surviving adult females of T. kanzawai exposed to cyenopyrafen, we observed significant reduction in reproduction and no egg hatch. Effectiveness of cyenopyrafen against adult female of T. kanzawai on bean leaves was lasted for 15 days at treatments of 125 and 83.3 ppm. In a field study, cyenopyrafen exhibited excellent activity to mixed developmental stages of T. kanzawai. Based on the results, cyenopyrafen could be used for the control of T. kanzawai and treatment of this acaricide at 83.3 ppm was recommended as the field rate.

  • This study evaluated the potential repellent and acaricidal effects of 4 essential oils (clove, eucalyptus, lavender, and mint) against the Asian longhorned tick Haemaphysalis longicornis, a vector of various tick-borne diseases in medical and veterinary contexts. Selected for their potential repellent and acaricidal properties, the 4 essential oils were tested on adult and nymph H. longicornis ticks at different concentrations. The experiment assessed mortality rates and repellency, particularly during tick attachment to host skin. There was a significant increase (P<0.05) in tick mortality and repellency scores across all groups. At a 1% concentration, adult tick mortality ranged from 36% to 86%, while nymph mortality ranged from 6% to 97%. Clove oil exhibited notable efficacy, demonstrating high mortality rates of nymphs and adults. Clove oil also displayed strong repellency properties, with a repellency index of 0.05, surpassing those of mint, eucalyptus, and lavender oils. Clove oil showed the highest effectiveness in deterring nonattached adult ticks (90%) and nymphs (95%) when applied to skin. Clove oil was the most effective against adult and nymph ticks, achieving mortality rates of 86% and 97%, respectively, and led to the highest nonattachment rates when applied to skin. In conclusion, essential oils such as clove, eucalyptus, lavender, and mint oils present promising results for tick population control.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of emulsifiable concentrate(EC) development and the stability and acaricidal activity of the formulated emulsifiable concentrate. Cyhexatin could be formulated into 9% EC by using phenol as a cosolvent and E-ASC as an emulsifier. Cyhexatin EC was stable in 0.5% moisture content, pH 4.5 and 7, but it was unstable in more than 1% moisture content and the alkaline condition of pH 9.5. The emulsion of cyhexatin EC was unstable in hard water of pH 10. The acaricidal activity of 500 fold of 9% EC was shown to be as good as that of 27% wp of 1500 fold.

  • The chemical compositions of the essential oil of Valeriana officinalis roots obtained by steam distillation method were analyzed by GC-MS. The 16 constituents were identified in the V. officinalis oil, and the most abundant compounds were patchouli alcohol (18.69%) and ${\beta}$-gurjunene (15.26%). Acaricidal effects of the V. officinalis oil were evaluated against Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Haemaphysalis longicornis larva and H. longicornis nymph by contact bioassay. The $LD_{50}$ values against T. putrescentiae, H. longicornis larva and H. longicornis nymph were 28.01, 178.26 and $207.98{\mu}g/cm^2$, respectively. Agar disc diffusion bioassay showed the antibacterial activity of the V. officinalis oil against foodborne pathogens, especially L. monocytogenes. These results showed that the essential oil of V. officinalis roots derived from USA has a potential for development as acaricide and antimicrobial.
