The effects of spirotetramat, a tetramic acid derivative, on gross fertility, net fertility, female longevity and the instantaneous rate of increase of two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) were investigated after treatment of female teleiochrysalises (the first assay) and pre-ovipositional females (the second assay). Spirotetramat was applied to the leaf discs by Potter spray tower and the following series of concentrations was applied: 200, 60, 18, 5.4 and 1.

- The study investigated the impact of spiromesifen on two-spotted spider mites by testing four different concentrations of the acaricide.
- Significant reductions were observed in gross fecundity, gross fertility, and net fertility in surviving female mites across multiple tests, particularly at higher concentrations.
- The results suggest that spiromesifen effectively lowers spider mite populations, especially at concentrations of 180 mg/l, with lower concentrations showing limited or no significant effects.
