Acaricidal activity of small molecule antagonists of the tick kinin receptor against Rhipicephalus microplus acaricide‐susceptible and resistant strains [PDF]
Two small molecules, SACC‐0039590 and SACC‐0428788, killed cattle fever tick, R. microplus, susceptible Deutch strain and pyrethroid resistant Arauquita strain larvae. SACC‐0039590 at 1 mM decreased the reproductive parameters of Deutch females. Abstract BACKGROUND Resistance to acaricides underscores the need for tick control alternatives.

Susceptibility to cyflumetofen in populations of the citrus leprosis mite, Brevipalpus yothersi, from Brazilian citrus orchards. [PDF]
Brevipalpus yothersi, the vector of citrus leprosis virus, showed high susceptibility to cyflumetofen. Its low resistance suggests it is effective, but should be rotated with other acaricides with different modes‐of‐action for sustainable management.

Genomic assessment of targets implicated in Rhipicephalus microplus acaricide resistance. [PDF]
Globally, the prevalence of Rhipicephalus microplus resistance to various acaricides has increased, and there is a need for the identification of molecular markers that can predict phenotypic resistance.

Effects of lithium chloride on queen egg-laying performance and worker honey bee behavior. [PDF]
Chronic oral lithium chloride (LiCl) exposure effectively increases Varroa mite mortality without impairing queen egg laying or brood care behaviors, while significantly reducing worker bee aggression, suggesting its potential for safe Varroa management and mitigating colony aggression.

Strategies for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks in a world of conventional acaricide and macrocyclic lactone resistance [PDF]
Infestations with the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus, constitute the most important ectoparasite problem for cattle production in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, resulting in major economic losses. The control of R.
