“…Mention of a pesticide or proprietary product does not constitute an endorsement or a recommendation of its use by U.S.D. A. stirofos (DeVaney, 1978), and perhaps pyrethroids (DeVaney, 1985 ) has developed in some locations of the United States. This resistance of northern fowl mites to commonly used acaricides has created a problem that will probably continue as long as present application techniques and use patterns prevail (Brattsten et al, 1986).…”

Toxicity was determined for 15 acaricides against a laboratory strain of northern fowl mites, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago). Adult females were exposed to residues on filter paper for 24 h. Three organophosphorous compounds (monocrotophos, cythioate, and famphur) were more toxic to the northern fowl mite than was carbaryl, the most commonly used pesticide in the poultry industry. The other tested compounds were less toxic to the mite than was carbaryl. Four of these, not used previously for northern fowl mite control, had low LC50's for northern fowl mites:aldicarb (0.46); pirimiphos-methyl (0.73); exo, exo-2,8-dichloro-4-thiatricyclo[3.2.1.0.]octane-4-oxide (AI3-63182) (0.87); and diazinon (2.48).

“…Northern fowl mites, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago), (Acari: Macronyssidae) are important pests of poultry in the United States, particularly of caged layers (Arends et al, 1984;De Vaney 1985). Individual mites produce few eggs, but O. sylviarum has a short life cycle and can thus quickly attain large populations on some hosts.…”

Eighteen of 21 naturally occurring compounds and plant extracts tested in an in‐vitro feeding system deterred northern fowl mites, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago), from feeding. At 1.0% (w/v) concentrations in chicken blood, five compounds killed all mites exposed to them. Citronellal and bay extract prevented mite feeding completely at 0.1% concentrations. None of the compounds or extracts had repellent activity when mites were surrounded by a ring of the test material (0–42 mgcm−2) impregnated in filter paper.
