Abstract: The acaricidal effect of crude peel oil from green and ripe sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) on cattle ticks was investigated. Parameters measured was the mortality rate of the ticks treated with these extracts at six different levels of dilution and at 24 hours after treatment. Dilution level (concentration) had significant (p>0.05) on the ticks mortality rate among the investigated extracts except for the Asuntol ( the commercial acaricide used as control ). The extracts can therefore be used against cattle ticks within the dilution rate of 1:10 10 1:1000.
