Tetranychus arabicus Attiah. Results indicated that among the seven tested alternatives. the highest percent of reduction in mite moving stages were recorded with Vertimec followed by Vabcomic which gave more than 85 % percent reduction (92.93 & 86.64 and 87.80 & 86.24) all over the two tested years. 2001 & 2002. respectively.
