Responding to Jim, Zachary (who undoubtedly knows more about this than any
50 of us combined) said:
"My post last time  was only toward Lloyds original post.  If a bug uses 1
or
2, they can be "cross-resistant" to two or more chemicals.  However
some people consider them to be "tolerant" only unless the bug has #3
as a mechanism."

I think my post commented on an understanding I have that when V.D. becomes
resistant to fluvalinate it is only a very short step to resistance to
amitraz.  (If I didn't say that, that is what I meant to say.)

What say you, Zachary?
