Evaluation of acaricide treatments to experimentally reduce winter tick load on moose
We experimentally reduced winter tick load on moose calves by testing the effectiveness of two acaricide treatments: topical permethrin (5% alone) and a combination of topical permethrin (44%) and orally administered fluralaner (25 mg/kg). We resighted moose calves through recaptures, necropsies or spring flyovers.
