world. The aim of work is to evaluate the effects of fresh garlic, onion, mix of them, garlic oil and onion oil
against Varroa mite in the honey bee colonies in Sohag Governorate. Data revealed that, all tested materials were effective when compared with control. The treatment with fresh garlic led to the highest percentage of fallen Varroa mite with 94.29% of the total Varroa presented in the bee colony, followed insignificantly by the mixture of garlic and onion (93.60%), garlic oil (91.55%) and onion oil (89.91%), however, the lowest percentage was recorded in fresh onion treatment with 85.33% of the total Varroa presented in the bee hive.
