Abstract
Three plant essential oils, namely, Mentha longifolia L., Salvia officinalis L. and Dracocephalum moldavicae L. were analyzed by GC/MS and tested for their toxicity and repellency against the tetranychid mite Tetranychus urticae Koch. D. moldavicae proved to be the most effective against T. urticae followed by S. officinalis and M. longifolia. The LC50 values were 1.57 & 0.58; 2.24 & 3.33 and 2.85 & 3.52 for adults and eggs, respectively
