| Popis: | Established populations of northern fowl mites, Ornitonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago), on caged laying hens were effectively controlled within 77 days by application of two plastic strips impregnated with permethrin per cage. Such strips contained 9.6% active ingredient (wt/wt), were ca. 20.5-cm long, and were affixed to the top cage wires. Use of only one strip per cage resulted in less control, approximating that obtained with .25% permethrin dust. Egg mass, expressed as gram egg per hen per day, was significantly greater in all treated groups. |
