Selective control of Rhipicephalus microplus in a dairy cattle herd from different genetic groups

Abstract: Alternatives for Rhipicephalus microplus control are needed in the light of its resistance to acaricides. One of the ways to decrease the use of acaricides in a herd is selective control (SC). In the present study, SC was evaluated in a dairy herd consisting of different genetic groups: Holstein, Jersey, crossbreed and Girolando. Ticks were counted in the right anterior third region on around 90 cows, totaling nine evaluations at intervals of 21 days. Commercial pour-on acaricide was applied only when the infe… Show more

“…It is also recommended to eliminate the larvae extracted from the animal to interrupt the biological cycle, and thereby decrease the D. hominis fly population at the site. The inspection and extraction of the botflies that parasitize the animals from a herd could be made every 21 days, together with the tick selective control as recommended by Andrade et al (2022).…”
