Comparing Effects of Three Acaricides on Varroa Jacobsoni (acari: Varroidae) and Apis Mellifera (hymenoptera: Apidae) Using Two Application Techniques
“TRED-NOTä DEERFLY PATCHES” (6.4 ́ 14.2 cm adhesive strips) affixed to the back and front of nylon mesh solid black and solid white “baseball” caps were evaluated for their ability to trap host-seeking Chrysops celatus Pechuman, C. vittatus Weidemann, and Diachlorus ferrugatus (F.). Trials were conducted in a commercial pine bottomland forest habitat in northwestern Florida during peak seasonal ...
متن کاملHeritability in Honey Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) of Characteristics Associated with Resistance to Varroa jacobsoni (Mesostigmata: Varroidae)
This studyuses siblinganalysis tomeasure theheritability inhoneybees,Apismellifera L., of characteristics that have been associated with resistance to the mite, Varroa jacobsoni Oudemans. Twenty-eight uniform colonies of bees were established on 13 May in Baton Rouge, LA, each with 1 kg of mite-infested bees and a queen. The 28 unrelated queens in these colonies were divided into 7 groups of 4 ...
متن کاملThe resistance of varroa mites (Acari: Varroidae) to acaricides and the presence of esterase
Varroa mites (Varroa destructor Anderson and Trueman, 2000) are becoming resistant to acaricide treatments via metabolic and/or target site desensitivity. Results of a survey of mites from the Carl Hayden AZ lab and from cooperators in five locations (Arizona, California, Florida, Maine, North Dakota) showed that some mites were susceptible to all three acaricides (Amitraz, Coumaphos, Fluvalina...
متن کاملPractical sampling plans for Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae) in Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) colonies and apiaries.
The parasitic mite Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman (Acari: Varroidae) is arguably the most detrimental pest of the European-derived honey bee, Apis mellifera L. Unfortunately, beekeepers lack a standardized sampling plan to make informed treatment decisions. Based on data from 31 commercial apiaries, we developed sampling plans for use by beekeepers and researchers to estimate the density ...
متن کاملComparing oxalic acid and sucrocide treatments for Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae) control under desert conditions.
The effectiveness of oxalic acid (OA) and Sucrocide (S) (AVA Chemical Ventures, L.L.C., Portsmouth, NH) in reducing populations of the varroa mite Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman (Acari: Varroidae) in honey bee, Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) colonies was measured under the desert conditions of Arizona, USA. OA and S were applied three times 7 d apart. A 3.2% solution of OA was ap...
