Abstract
Abstract Pesticides were tested for control of citrus red mite populations on navel oranges at the Lindcove Field station near Exeter, CA. All but 1 treatment were applied with a hand gun using a hydraulic sprayer at ca. 500 psi applying ca. 12 gal/tree (1200 gal/acre). The fourth treatment (**) was applied as a low-volume coverage (100 gal/acre) with an FMC CP-267. Each treatment was replicated in 3 4-tree plots with 2 of the 4 trees selected at random prior to treatment as data trees that were then used on each sample date (6 total). Using a hand lens, live adult female mites were counted on randomly selected leaves (2 leaves from each of 4 terminals per quadrant; 32 per tree) on each sample date.
