Field experiments were conducted in 2005 at two locations in Arkansas to test efficacy of selected compounds for control of Two-Spotted Spider Mite (Tetranychus urticae). The economic damage caused by the Two-Spotted Spider Mite can be significant in Arkansas and all over the U.S. Cotton Belt. Spider mites feed on the underside of the leaves, and cause yellow speckling on the leaves. It is necessary to conduct experiments to insure labeled compounds provide adequate control of the Two-Spotted Spider Mite.
