A Marketable Formulation that Kills Overwintering Ticks (Ixodes scapularis).
We have developed a natural product acaricide that is based on balsam fir (Abies balsamea) essential oil. The product kills overwintering ticks. It is designed to be applied to lawns, gardens and municipal parks in the late fall to kill ticks over the winter. The purpose of this project is to complete testing under semi-natural conditions, conduct a final field test (beta test) of the product this winter, and bring the product to market.
