Struggle against gadflies and prevention of hypodermatose in cattle in Russia and abroad

Nepoklonov A.A., Prokhorova I.A., Mavrin N.A.

Summary

Current status of prevention and liquidation of hypodermatose of cattle in Russia and in the world is reviewed. The system of control measures aimed at control of hypodermatose of cattle is described. Highly effective preparations for systemic action in different pharmaceutical forms: solution for injection, cutaneous application, in the form of premixes and boluses, which are used for treatment and prevention of hypodermatose of cattle in the autumn after flying of gadflies (october – november) and spring – in the case of detection of sinus capsules on the back, have been developed in our country and abroad in recent years.

Key words: hypodermic gadfly, cattle, hypodermatose, veterinary measures, ivermectins, Elisa diagnostics.
