Ticks and control methods.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 1994
Ticks are the most important ectoparasites of livestock in tropical and sub-tropical areas, and are responsible for severe economic losses both through the direct effects of blood sucking and indirectly as vectors of pathogens and toxins. Feeding by large numbers of ticks causes reduction in live weight gain and anaemia among domestic animals, while ...

A Review of Tick and Tick Control Strategies in Pakistan

Pakistan Journal of Medical and Health Sciences, 2022
Background: In Pakistan, ticks are a major problem for livestock and humans. These can spread a wide range of infections including protozoan, viruses, and bacteria such as spirochetes and rickettsiae. Ticks are found in all ecological and geographic zones of Pakistan. Bovine Babesiosis and Theileriosis have been documented in Pakistan.

Immunology of the Tick–Host Interaction and the Control of Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases

Parasitology Today, 1999
The first experimental vaccination against ticks was carried out 60 years ago. Since then, progress has been slow, although the recent commercial release of a recombinant vaccine against Boophilus microplus is significant. The nature of naturally acquired protective immunity against ticks is poorly understood, particularly in the important ...

Control of Ticks

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1991
A number of different acaricides provide highly effective control of tick populations on dogs and cats. These acaricides are formulated as sprays, dips, dusts, or shampoos for use on the animal. Further protection of the animal from reinfestation with ticks can be achieved with the use of acaricide-impregnated flea and tick collars.

Immunological approaches to the control of ticks

International Journal for Parasitology, 1987
Abstract It has now been amply demonstrated that it is possible to induce an immunologically-mediated resistance to several tick species using crude extracts. This is the first step on a long road to a practical means of tick control. The next step must be the identification of protective antigens and this work has hardly been started.

Vaccination Against Ticks and the Control of Ticks and Tick-borne Disease

2005
Economic losses due to ticks and tick-borne disease of livestock fall disproportionately on developing countries. Currently, tick control relies mostly on pesticides and parasite-resistant cattle. Release of a commercial recombinant vaccine against Boophilus microplus in Australia in 1994 showed that anti-tick vaccines are a feasible alternative.

Ticks, Tick-Borne Diseases and their Control in Western Ethiopia

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 1992
Nineteen different tick species have been identified in Western Ethiopia. The most important ticks belong to the genera Amblyomma, Boophilus, Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus , while the major cattle tick-borne diseases are anaplasmosis, babesiosis and theileriosis, T. mutans .

Tick Control in Zambia

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 1994
Ticks and tick-borne diseases of cattle have been and still are a threat to the development of the cattle industry in Zambia. Other control methods of ticks and tick-borne diseases appear to have been used elsewhere in the world in addition to chemical control.

Integrated control of ticks and tick-borne diseases.

Parassitologia, 2000
Integrated control of ticks and tick-borne diseases (ICTTD) is currently promoted by an international project, supported by the European Union, with the aim to increase livestock productivity through the development of improved strategies for tick control, vaccine delivery and integrated diagnostics for tickborne diseases.
