I like that way some people are waking up to the 'power of the internet'
thing. As individuals we don't have a chance of performing the type of
study needed to get EPA/FDA approval, but as a group there might be a
chance as long as everyone involved follows the same protocols. It used to
be that the internet was for scientists and defense guys to share research
results and information, but now everyone is on so let's take advantage of
it.
Let's not get discouraged about contacting these agencies. I looked up EPA
and FDA contacts on the WWW this morning. Here are some pages and numbers
to go after:
http://www.epa.gov/opp00001/chemreg.htm
http://www.epa.gov/PesticideApplication/
http://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~lrd/pestadd.html
These are just a beginning. If we're really interested in making this
work, it will take some effort.
This is just a sampling of what I found. If anyone is interested in more I
can attach the full search or Endnote libraries of the search to private
emails in a couple of days (Paul Bashore, you're already on the list).
Few of these deal with the mites we're interested in, but the method of
action should be similar.

AB This paper deals with the study of emulsive oil as an alternative to
the acaricides used for the rusty ***mite*** (P. oleivora)
control in citrus orchards. Two types of emulsive oil were
compared: the American SUN oil and the Brazilian OPA-E oil. The
expt. was carried out in an orchard of 20 yr old com. varieties of
orange of high yields, which receives a good treatment, including
irrigation. Both products were studied as preventive and curative
controls. The results indicated that both oils are effective for
the ***mite*** control. However SUN oil gave a longer
protection against the rusty ***mite*** and this difference was
more evident in the curative treatment.

Genite, and Citronol (95-97% wt./vol. petroleum oil) were
investigated on the winter eggs of these 2 mites in the lab. and in
the field. I was highly effective and superior to all products at
early and late dormant stages of tree growth. The nearer to egg
hatch the other products were applied, the more effective they were.
The use of petroleum oil as insecticide should be reexamd., since
the oil does not leave toxic residues and causes no insect
resistance.

AB The efficacy of vegetable ***oil*** and menthol was tested in
controlling tracheal mites (Acarapis woodi [Rennie]) in honey bees
(Apis mellifera L.). Each of 40 ***bee*** colonies was given
one of four treatments: (1) vegetable ***oil*** shortening, (2)
menthol, (3) vegetable ***oil*** shortening and menthol, or (4)
no treatment (control). Colonies were sampled for percentage bees
infested and severity of infestation per infested ***bee*** on
nine dates from 14 Feb. to 7 August 1991. Treatments were applied
on 27 Feb. and removed on 18 Apr. On 3 Apr., mite infestation was
reduced in the ***oil*** shortening + menthol treatment. On
every sampling date after 3 Apr., infestation was reduced by all
***oil*** shortening or menthol treatments. Compared with
menthol, vegetable ***oil*** shortening gave equiv. mite control
on all sampling dates. From 3 Apr. through 9 May, infestation was
lowest in the ***oil*** shortening + menthol treatment. Except
for one sampling date, severity of infestation per infested
***bee*** was unaffected by treatments.

AB Four seed-derived oils were evaluated in field trials as control
agents for the parasitic tracheal mite, Acarapis woodi (Rennie), in
colonies of the honey ***bee*** , Apis mellifera (L.).
Seventy-one honey been colonies infested with the tracheal mite were
each assigned to 1 of 4 treatment groups or to a control group.
Treatments were peanut, soybean, sunflower, or canola ***oil*** ,
delivered as patties after blending with confectioner sugar (2 parts
sugar/1 part ***oil*** [wt:wt]). All 5 groups had similar mite
prevalence values (proportion of infested bees) and parasite load
scores (a measure of the no. of mites per ***bee*** ) before
initiating treatment. Each colony received five 500-g patties
delivered approx. every 14 d starting on 16 Sept. 1992 and
continuing until 1 Dec. 1992. Mite prevalence values, parasite load
scores, and colony wt. gains (an indicator of honey prodn.) were
measured the following spring. Av. mite prevalence values obtained
on 4 and 5 May 1993 in the treated groups ranged from 0.015 to
0.027, compared with 0.094 in the control group. The mite
prevalence value in each treatment group was less than the mite
prevalence value in the control group. Similar differences were
obsd. for parasite load scores. Differences in colony wt. gains
among the 5 groups were not significant.
