Activity of selected anticoccidials as feed additives for control of the northern fowl mite, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago).
Three levels (high, low and control) of northern fowl mite, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago), were maintained on White Leghorn hens for 24 weeks. The hens were then treated with carbaryl to eradicate the mites, were induced to molt, and were reinfested with mites 9 weeks later. Subsequent levels of mites on the three groups showed that the degree of acquired immunity was related...
متن کاملAcaricide resistance in northern fowl mite (Ornithonyssus sylviarum) populations on caged layer operations in Southern California.
Southern California caged layer operations were visited over 3 yr. Northern fowl mites from 26 field populations were tested for acaricide resistance using a capillary pipette and glass dish bioassay. One was a susceptible field population with no pesticide exposure for over 30 yr (reference site for resistance ratio calculation). Technical and commercial formulations of malathion, carbaryl (Se...
متن کاملAbundance and temporal distribution of Ornithonyssus sylviarum Canestrini and Fanzago (Acarina: Mesostigmata) in gray catbird (Dumatella carolinensis) nests.
The northern fowl mite, Ornithonyssus sylviarum Canestrini and Fanzago, is a common ectoparasite of wild birds. Despite its ability to transmit eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus under laboratory conditions and potential for involvement in the natural EEE virus cycle, we know little about its abundance or temporal distribution in nature. From June to August 2000, we studied the abundance o...
متن کاملBeak condition and cage density determine abundance and spatial distribution of northern fowl mites, Ornithonyssus sylviarum, and chicken body lice, Menacanthus stramineus, on caged laying hens.
Adult White Leghorn hens (Hy-Line strain W-36) were inoculated with either northern fowl mites or chicken body lice, and the ectoparasite populations were monitored over periods of 9 to 16 wk. Two beak conditions (beak trimmed or beak intact) and 2 housing densities (1 or 2 hens per 25 × 31 cm suspended wire cage) were tested. Populations of both ectoparasites were at least 10 times lower on be...
متن کاملPrecipitating Antibody Concentrations and Visual Estimates Correlated to Absolute Northern Fowl Mite (acari: Macronyssidae) Densities from White Rock Hens
Fifty-four White Rock hens were infested with 2,000 northern fowl mites/ bird and six hens were sampled at nine time periods during the 28,week study. Hens supported an average of 15,028 mites when mites were collected from infested bird carcasses digested with a modification of the Cook's technique. Mite-specific Ilrccipitating antibodies were quantified from hen serum samples with rocket elec...
