Full title: Correction: Zaheer et al. Acaricidal Potential and Ecotoxicity of Metallic Nano-Pesticides Used Against the Major Life Stages of Hyalomma Ticks. Life 2022, 12 , 977.

This article focuses on corrections made to a study evaluating the acaricidal effects of iron oxide (Fe2O3), magnesium oxide (MgO), and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanopesticides against different life stages of Hyalomma ticks. Key amendments include changes to experimental group designations, lethal concentration values (LC50 and LC90 in mg/L), figure captions, and table units, with no impact on the original scientific conclusions. The corrected data show specific lethal concentrations for eggs, larvae, and adult ticks exposed to these nanopesticides, providing quantitative measures of their efficacy. Visual materials such as stereomicrographs and mortality graphs were also revised for clarity and accuracy. [Extracted from the article]
