Two similar but independent experiments were conducted to control pecan leaf scorch mites on mature “Stuart”, “Schley”, and “Success” pecan trees at Monroe, LA. The experimental design for Experiment #I was a randomized block design consisting of 4 blocks with 2 trees per treatment per block. Applications were made Aug 14 with a Myers 2A42 sprayer with ca. 500 gal being applied per acre. Evaluation occurred on Aug 21 (7 days post-treatment) and Aug 28 (14 days post-treatment) by counting the number of mites present on 2 leaflets on each of 10 randomly selected compound leaves per tree. Data were subjected to analysis of variance.
