Determination of LC50 and LC95 Values of Fipronil Against Haemaphysalis Bispinosa Based on Adult Immersion Test

Abstract

The pattern of mortality of Haemaphysalis bispinosa ticks against fipronil was studied based on adult immersion test. Mortality occurred during 10-19 days post-treatment. The LC50 and LC95 values were calculated as 0.53 and 7.045 ppm, respectively.
