UV\u2013visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy were used to characterize the synthesized NPs. Egg, nymph, larva, and adult immersion tests were used for bioassay of tick stages with the synthesized ZnO NP. A toxicity study was performed on Swiss albino mice after treatment with 1\/10 of the oral LD<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> of ZnO NPs (8437\u00a0mg\/kg) for 5 successive days by oral gavage.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The LC<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> of ZnO NPs on the eggs, larvae, and nymphs was 11.6, 8.03, and 3.9\u00a0mg\/ml, respectively. The reproductive performance of females treated with ZnO NPs was lower than that of untreated females. The hematological results showed an insignificant increase in the level of white blood cells with normal red blood cells, hemoglobin, in addition to normal platelet count. The biochemical analysis showed an insignificant increased level (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&gt;\u20090.05) of alkaline phosphatase and alanine aminotransferase.

ZnO NPs did not affect unfed adults. The toxicity results of the mice revealed insignificant changes in the hemogram, biochemistry, with liver and kidney suffering few histopathological changes.
