Fitness costs of key point mutations that underlie acaricide target‐site resistance in the two‐spotted spider miteTetranychus urticae [PDF]
, 2018 The frequency of insecticide/acaricide target-site resistance is increasing in arthropod pest populations and is typically underpinned by single point mutations that affect the binding strength between the insecticide/acaricide and its target-site ...

Acaricides Resistance in Ticks: Selection, Diagnosis, Mechanisms, and Mitigation
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Ticks are blood-feeding ecto-parasites that have a cosmopolitan distribution in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Ticks cause economic losses in the form of reduced blood, meat and dairy products, as well as pathogen transmission.

Cost-Effectiveness of Acaricide Application Methods against Heartwater Disease in South Africa
Agriculture, 2023 In an economic sense, heartwater disease is the most important tick-borne disease faced by South African livestock farmers. Methods to control the disease vary among farmers, and the preferred method depends on the prevalence of the disease in a specific

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2022 In many African countries, tick control has recently been the responsibility of resource-poor farmers rather than central government veterinary departments. This has led to an increase in acaricide resistance, threatening the welfare of livestock farmers
