Savey is highly effective against mite eggs. If many active mites are present, an adulticide should be applied. See Table for REI and PHI information. Pyrellin is moderately effective as an acaricide registered for brambles. It has a short residual life and should be reapplied at 7 day intervals while mite populations persist. Stylet oil is effective against mite eggs; repeated applications may be needed while mites persist. |
