Predatory mites avoid ovipositing near counterattacking prey
Attacking prey is not without risk; predators may endure counterattack by the prey. Here, we study the oviposition behaviour of a predatory mite (Iphiseius degenerans) in relation to its prey, the western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis). This thrips is capable of killing the eggs of the predator.

Compatibility of pesticides with the predatory mite Neoseiulus barkeri
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2023Multiple arthropod pests can affect the same crop in agricultural systems, requiring the integration of control methods. In the present study, the effects of residual exposure to four broad-spectrum insecticides/acaricides (azadiractin, abamectin, chlorfenapyr, and fenpyroximate) on immature (development and survival time) and adult females (longevity,

Predatory behaviour of the mite cheyletus aversor
Animal Behaviour, 1972Predaceous behaviour of the mite Cheyletus aversor was observed using a closed circuit TV system with a Sony AV-3600 videocorder. Responses of C. aversor to its prey or own species are analysed from four behavioural modes: ambushing, moving, feeding and resting.

Zoosymposia, 2022
Predatory mites were the second largest group of natural enemies, where some species have been commercialized and used worldwide for pest biological control. Two important predatory mite species Phytoseiulus persimilis and Neoseiulus cucumeris have been introduced to China for the control of mite and small insect pests in greenhouses and open fields ...

How Plants Obtain Predatory Mites as Bodyguards
Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 1987Phytophagous mites are a serious threat to their host plants; in absence of predators they tend to overexploit their food source. To prevent such a crash and maintain as much leaf area as possible host plants may defend themselves in various ways, one of which is to increase the effectiveness of natural enemies of the phytophagous mites.
