Sarcoptic and psoroptic mange threaten the health of both animals and humans worldwide and result in enormous socioeconomic loss. Discovery of new lead compounds is a major goal for controlling this kind of disease. However, the methodological shortcomings of acaricidal tests against Sarcoptes and Psoroptes mites for screening active compounds in vitro troubles colleagues and should be given more attention.

Arising amitraz and pyrethroids resistance mutations in the ectoparasitic Varroa destructor mite in Canada.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada.
The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor remains a great threat for the beekeeping industry, for example contributing to excessive winter colony loss in Canada. For decades, beekeepers have sequentially used the registered synthetic varroacides tau-fluvalinate, coumaphos, amitraz, and flumethrin, leading to the risk of resistance evolution in the mites. In addition to the widespread resistance to coumaphos and pyrethroids, a decline in amitraz efficacy has recently been reported in numerous beekeeping regions in Canada.

Tetranychus urticae Koch, commonly known as two spotted spider mites, is a major agricultural pest that causes significant economic loss. Predatory mites, such as Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot and Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) are important biological control agents for this pest. However, the efficacy of these predators can be compromised by pesticide application.

The poultry red mite (PRM), Dermanyssus gallinae, a significant ectoparasite causing diseases in poultry, is globally prevalent and necessitates effective control strategies. There are restrictions on the use of acaricides in poultry across several nations due to worries about medication residues. Consequently, finding safe and efficient treatments for PRM is imperative.

The cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus is prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions, causing substantial economic losses due to its resistance to conventional acaricides. There is an urgent need to identify safe and effective new acaricidal agents. Essential oils and their volatile compounds are promising alternatives.
