Abstract: Aspects related to the epidemiology of Megninia ginglymura were studied, in order to determine predisposing factors for the ocurrence in layer chicken houses of commercial farms in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. An observational, cross-sectional, analytical survey was conducted for identifying major risks or protection factors for infestations. Four hundred thirty-one houses located in forty-three farms were visited in 2012. Regarding the farms, 17 (39.53%) had chickens infested by M. ginglymura and 1 (2.3… Show more

“…However, Oliveira et al these control methods are targeted to control hematophagous mites (D. gallinae, O. bursa and O. sylviarum) that are visualized easily on the poultry and in the poultry facilities. As in some research there are acaricide and the mineral oil application, they can take the reduction of the mites populations of Megninia genus and underestimate the occurrence of the same ones in the chicken houses of poultry farms (MAURER et al, 2009;REZENDE et al, 2015). The present study agreed also with REZENDE et al…”

“…An association was verified between the ruddy ground-dove (Columbina talpacoti) presence and the absence of Megninia spp., such fact, was also observed by REZENDE et al (2015) when accomplishing the selection procedures with statistics univariate to evaluate the predisposing factors for the occurrence of infestations for those mites. These authors obtained a result that indicated less chance of occurrence of those ectoparasites when there were reports of the ruddy ground-dove presence.…”
