The EOs used were obtained by steam distillation from the leaves of cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum), mexican mint (Plectranthus amboinicus), lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), peppercorns (Pimenta dioica), and peruvian pepper tree (Schinus molle). To evaluate the acaricidal effect of EOs against the larvae of two tick species, a larval immersion test (LIT) was performed using six concentrations (10 mg\/mL, 5 mg\/mL, 2.5 mg\/mL, 1.87 mg\/mL, 1.25 mg\/mL, and 0.6 mg\/mL), in addition to a negative control group (water + ethanol) and three positive controls (organophosphate, formamidine, and pyrethroid). LIT results were obtained 48 h after exposure. Data were processed using Probit procedure to determine the lethal concentrations at 50% (LC50), 95% (LC95), and 99% (LC99). For R. microplus, 99% mortality was obtained at concentrations as low as 1.4 mg\/mL for S. molle, while the highest LC99 was recorded with P. dioica at 23 mg\/mL. In the case of A. mixtum, higher concentrations were required to achieve a high mortality rate. EO of P. amboinicus had the lowest acaricidal effect, requiring 26.2 mg\/mL to achieve an LC99, while S. molle required a concentration of 6.9 mg\/mL to achieve an LC99.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pathogens15040403","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,8]],"date-time":"2026-04-08T09:49:44Z","timestamp":1775641784000},"page":"403","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Acaricidal Effect of Essential Oils in the Control of Rhipicephalus microplus and Amblyomma mixtum Larvae in Mexico"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-4506-2422","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan Manuel","family":"Hern\u00e1ndez-Dom\u00ednguez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad Regional Universitaria SurSureste, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Chapingo, Teapa 86800, Tabasco, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0333-7787","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roberto","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Gardu\u00f1o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad Regional Universitaria SurSureste, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Chapingo, Teapa 86800, Tabasco, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5289-8025","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edgar","family":"Castro-Saines","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro Nacional de Investigaci\u00f3n Disciplinaria en Salud Animal e Inocuidad, Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agr\u00edcolas y Pecuarias, Jiutepec 62550, Morelos, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5474-9816","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rodolfo","family":"Lagunes-Quintanilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro Nacional de Investigaci\u00f3n Disciplinaria en Salud Animal e Inocuidad, Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agr\u00edcolas y Pecuarias, Jiutepec 62550, Morelos, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3340-8059","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roger Iv\u00e1n","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Vivas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Medicina Veterinaria y Zootecnia, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Yucat\u00e1n, M\u00e9rida 97700, Yucat\u00e1n, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5499-7449","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Agust\u00edn","family":"Olmedo-Ju\u00e1rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro Nacional de Investigaci\u00f3n Disciplinaria en Salud Animal e Inocuidad, Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agr\u00edcolas y Pecuarias, Jiutepec 62550, Morelos, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4083-3093","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jorge Alberto","family":"Cortes-Morales","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Estudios Superiores del Jicarero, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Morelos, Carretera Galeana-Tequesquitengo s\/n, Colonia El Jicarero, Jojutla  62909, Morelos, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-7251-2753","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claudia Yesenia","family":"Le\u00f3n-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad Regional Universitaria SurSureste, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma Chapingo, Teapa 86800, Tabasco, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"669","article-title":"Indicators of the Competitiveness of Mexican Beef in the World Market","volume":"11","author":"Morales","year":"2020","journal-title":"Rev.
