Abstract : The numbers of mites on buds and of stunted and branched inflorescences and the yield following treatment showed that application of 4 full-coverage sprays of dichlorvos (Nogos) at 2-week intervals beginning at the end of January in field tests in Egypt was very effective for the control of Aceria mangiferae Sayed on mango trees during the flowering season.
