Juss, family: Meliaceae, Dogon yaro in Hausa language in Nigeria) was tested against the larvae of a one-host tick, Boophilus decoloratus (family: Ixodidae or hard tick, commonly known as blue tick) parasitic mainly to cattle generally found in savannas of tropical equatorial Africa. The 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% concentrations of neem seed oil were found to kill all (100% mortality) the larvae after 27, 27, 27, 27 and 24 h respectively.
对印楝籽油（印楝，楝科，在尼日利亚豪萨语中称为Dogon yaro）的体外毒性进行了测试，受试对象是一种单宿主蜱——消色牛蜱（蜱螨目硬蜱科，俗称蓝蜱）的幼虫，这种蜱主要寄生于牛，常见于热带赤道非洲的稀树草原。结果发现，印楝籽油浓度为20%、40%、60%、80%和100%时，分别在27小时、27小时、2
