Plot size at least 12m 2 , the trial was repeated 4 times at random plot distribution.<br />

Sprayer Hardi 4110-12 was used for spraying, water volume – 1 000 l ha -1 . Weather<br />

conditions at 91 growth stage according BBCH scale (Meier, 1997) during application<br />

presented in Table 2.<br />

Assessments in 2005 and 2006 were made as follows: before application (VI.27<br />

and VII.20), 3–4 (VII.02 and VII.24), 7 (VII.06 and VII.27) and 21 days (VII.20<br />

and VIII.10) after application. Assessments were made on 20 leaflets for assessment<br />

the number of strawberry mites per leaf in each plot. Meteorological data (a<strong>ir</strong><br />

temperature and amount of precipitation) were recorded using scab warning equipment<br />

Metos D (Table 3).<br />

Mortality of mites was calculated: x = 100 (1–Ab/Ba) (x – mortality, %, A –<br />

number of mites, before spraying in untreated plot, B – number of mites, before<br />

spraying in treated plot, a – number of mites, after spraying in untreated plot, b –<br />

number of mites, after spraying in treated plot).<br />

We applied quantitative toxicity categories those employed by the International<br />

Organization for Biological Control for assessment of pesticide toxicity to predatory<br />

and phytophagous mites in field trials: non-toxic (< <strong>25</strong>% mortality), slightly toxic<br />

(<strong>25</strong>–50%), moderately toxic (51–75%), very toxic (> 75%) (Hassan et al., 1985).<br />

The number of strawberry mites was compared among treatments in this study<br />

with a single factor analysis of variance (ANOVA). Differences were identified with<br />

Duncan’s multiple range test.<br />

Results. There were found on average 9.<strong>25</strong>, 10.5 and 5.75 strawberry mites<br />

per leaflet in unsprayed plots 3, 7 and 21 days after treatment in 2005 (Table 4).<br />

Abamectin 18 g l -1 , 21.6 g AI ha -1 reduced to 2.<strong>25</strong>, 2.75 and 3.<strong>25</strong> the number of mites<br />

per leaf 3, 7 and 21 days after treatment, respectively. Abamectin 18 g l -1 , 21.6 g AI<br />

ha -1 was very toxic (mortality - 77.8 and 76.1%) to strawberry mite 3 and 7 days and<br />

slightly toxic (mortality – 48.4%) 21 days after treatment, respectively (Table 5).<br />

Abamectin 18 g l -1 , 18.0 g AI ha -1 was moderately toxic (mortality – 56.9 and 52.0%)<br />

3 and 7 days and slightly toxic (mortality – 41.6%) 21 days after treatment. The<br />

lowest rate 9.0 g AI ha -1 of Abamectin 18 g l -1 was slightly toxic 3 and 7 days and<br />

non-toxic 21 after treatment. The mortality ranged from 16.3 to 45.6%. The toxicity<br />

of Abamectin was compared with the toxicity of Lambdacihalotrin and Sp<strong>ir</strong>odiclofen<br />

to strawberry mite. There were found any statistical differences of number of<br />
