Effects of low temperatures on the survival of house-dust mites of the family Pyroglyphidae (Acari : Sarcoptiformes)

Six hours exposure to -15°C was needed for the eradication of the moving stages of Dermatophagoides farinae and D. microceras, whereas D. chelidonis, D. pteronyssinus and Euroglyphus maynei needed an exposure of 6 hours to -28°C for the same effect. In continental and sub-arctic climates these tempe...
