Adult female Metaseiulus occidentalis Nesbitt immigrated faster and at higher rates than did Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten to mini-orchards of young apple trees at 0, 10 and 100 m downwind from four apple orchards in the Hood River Valley, Oregon. Colonization of min-orchards also was faster by M. occidentalis. Rates of emigration were similar between species as measured by movement into trees placed within, but not in contact with source orchard trees. Dispersal and colonization may be influenced by intrinsic physiological and morphological attributes, food habits, and responses to prey and habitat requirements. Implications of dispersal and colonization by these mites to biological control and pesticide resistance management are discussed.
