  1. Notes: Commercial rate for application of propoxur is 1000 ppm. Commercial rates for application of deltamethrin and cypermethrin are 250 and 150 ppm, respectively. For field isolate 13, for propoxur concentrations < 62.5 ppm, mite mortality ranged from 0.0 to 12.5% at 1.95 to 31.3 ppm, respectively. For cypermethrin mortality ranged from 0.0 to 1.0% at 1.95 to 31.3 ppm, respectively
