dipping have had time to become ma
ture and deposit more eggs. AS the
eggs on the body of the host usually
require days incubation, sometimes
week, and probably never more than
10 days, and as 10 to II days are nee
essary for the young mites after hatch
ing to grow to maturity, mate, and de-
posit their eggs, it would appear that
the best time for the second dipping
is about 10 days after the first, as all
the eggs will have hatched, while prac-
tically none of the new generation OF
mites will have developed sufficiently
to deposit eggs. Practical experience
has shown that the second dipping
may be delayed until the fourteenth
day without unfavorably affecting the
results of the treatment, but wherever
possible it is preferable to follow the
Today rule.
