      Diagnostic doses of six acaricides (fenothiocarb, endosulfan, chlorfenapyr, tebufenpyrad, cyenopyrafen and cyflumetofen) resulted in a 68.0~71.8% mortality rate (on average) in the test mite populations, whereas the remaining six acaricides (monocrotophos, omethoate, bifenthrin, abamectin, etoxazole and bifenazate) caused slightly reduced mortality rates (on average 36.5~59.3%).
