Time courses of the field trials of compound 3c{3,6}, both performed in Canada. (A) Data from the trial in the lower Fraser Valley in British Columbia. (B) Data from the trial in Beaverlodge in Alberta. Points represent the average ± S. E. of 10 replicates. Blue: control devices, Orange: treatment devices containing 5 g of 3c{3,6}. The experimental treatment lasted until the 28th day of the experiment, when the experimental devices were removed from the colonies and Apivar® strips were installed for an additional 6 weeks. A generalized least squares model was fit to the untransformed results for mite fall. Pairwise comparisons between treatment and control were performed for each experimental day when sticky boards were counted from hives (t-tests, Bonferroni adjusted; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; NS not significant).
