Efficacy of Nematode Against Lesser Mealworm () Populations from Poultry Farms in Türkiye.

In the veterinary field, particularly in the poultry farming sector, (Panzer, 1797) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is a significant pest that causes economic losses and acts as a vector for various pathogens. This study is the first to evaluate the efficacy of the entomopathogenic nematode Filipjev, 1934 against both the larval (fifth instar) and imago (adult) of from various Turkish populations. The insects were collected from six poultry farms in the provinces of Balikesir, Bolu, Canakkale, Manisa, and Izmir in Türkiye, bred, and then tested at concentrations ranging from 25 to 200 infective juveniles (IJs) per milliliter.

Monitoring of Thiamethoxam Resistance in Turkish House Fly Strains, (Diptera: Muscidae).

Background: The house fly, , is vector for pathogens and parasites and causes economic damage to livestock by reducing forage conversion efficiency, negatively impacting weight gain and milk production. It has shown resistance to multiple insecticide classes. The aim of this research was to determine the susceptibility levels of seventeen field strains to thiamethoxam, a neonicotinoid insecticide, in Türkiye.

The aim of this research was to investigate the larvicidal and repellent effects of essential oils (EOs) obtained from two Lamiaceae plant species, Origanum minutiflorum O. Schwarz & P.H.

Exploring the Larvicidal and Repellent Potential of Taurus Cedar () Tar against the Brown Dog Tick ( sensu lato).

This study investigated the potential acaricidal and repellent effects of tar obtained from the Lebanon cedar ( A. Rich.) against the brown dog tick species sensu lato Latreille (Acari: Ixodidae).

Pathogenicity of an Entomopathogenic Nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae on Alphitobius diaperinus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) Strains From Turkey.

Alphitobius diaperinus Panzer (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is an insect pest in poultry production systems. This insect has developed resistance to many chemical insecticides. As an alternative to chemicals, entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are one of the most commonly used agents against several pest arthropods.

Evaluation of Some Plant Fruit Extracts for the Control of West Nile Virus Vector (Diptera: Culicidae).

Background: The extracts of different parts of plants were found very effective against various pests. The aim of this research was to determine the insecticidal activity of fruit methanol extracts obtained from (Meliaceae), (Arecaceae), (Fabaceae) and (Rosaceae) against the larvae of (Diptera: Culicidae).

Methods: The fruits of test plants were collected from the Campus of Akdeniz University, Antalya, Turkey in 2013.

Larvicidal activity of Cyclamen (Myrsinaceae) extracts against the larvae of West Nile virus vector Culex pipiens L. (Diptera: Culicidae).

Objective: To evaluate the larvicidal activity of the tuber extracts isolated from two species of Cyclamen Cyclamen mirabile Hildebr. and Cyclamen alpinum Dammann ex. Sprenger) against Culex pipiens L.

Acaricidal activity of Origanum bilgeri P.H. Davis (Lamiaceae) essential oil and its major component, carvacrol against adults Rhipicephalus turanicus (Acari: Ixodidae).

The acaricidal activity of an essential oil obtained from aerial parts of Origanum bilgeri P.H. Davis (Lamiaceae), an endemic species in Turkey, and its major constituents, carvacrol was evaluated against unfed adults Rhipicephalus turanicus Pomerantzev (Acari: Ixodidae) collected from Kepez, Antalya.
