A number of materials were tested for efficacy against citrus red mite in a lemon grove in Riverside, California. Treatments were applied on Apr 28-29 by handgun (450 psi) with about 1200 gal per acre. Naked eye counts of mites on 32 leaves per tree (two 4-leaf terminals per quadrant) were made. There were four single-tree replicates.
