Abstract: Dermanyssus gallinae is one of the most serious ectoparasites in the poultry breeding industry. The most common mean of controlling Dermanyssus gallinaes is to use chemical drugs for prevention and control in poultry houses. With the development of healthy diet, more and more attention was paid to the problem of pesticide residues in eggs and chickens. Alternatives to chemical drugs have been explored, including vaccines, biological control methods, physical control methods and environment-friendly semiochemicals of Dermanyssus gallinaes. This article reviewed the current research status of semiochemicals such as aggregation pheromones, sex pheromones, alarm pheromones, kairomones and plant compounds, and provides theoretical basis to seek for green and pollution-free alternatives for the prevention and control of Dermanyssus gallinae.

Key words: Dermanyssus gallinae, pheromones, semiochemicals
