A natural barrier: tick‐repellent potential of a spruce‐derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.

Comparative lipidomic and proteomic analysis reveals species‐specific differences in midgut composition and insecticide absorption between Apis mellifera and Bombus terrestris

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Lipidomic and proteomic analysis revealed large‐scale differences in the midgut composition of the honeybee Apis mellifera and the buff‐tailed bumblebee Bombus terrestris. These differences correlated to increased insecticide absorption in the bumblebee when using an ex vivo Ussing chamber and subsequently in vivo feeding assay (created in Biorender ...

Acaricidal activity of small molecule antagonists of the tick kinin receptor against Rhipicephalus microplus acaricide‐susceptible and resistant strains

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
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.
