Larval Packet Test (LPT) bioassay revealed the highest LC50 values for both deltamethrin and cypermethrin against R. (B.) microplus ticks collected from Chittoor (40.05 ppm and 88.68 ppm) followed by Prakasam (12.59 ppm and 36.58 ppm) and YSR Kadapa (8.10 ppm and 30.82 ppm), respectively. The tick populations of Chittoor showed significantly (PRead More
