Here, economic losses caused by cattle parasites in Mexico were estimated on an annual basis. The main factors taken into consideration for this assessment included the total number of animals at risk, potential detrimental effects of parasitism on milk production or weight gain, and records of condemnation on livestock byproducts. Estimates in US dollars (US$) were based on reported yield losses in untreated animals. These estimates reflect the major effects on cattle productivity of six parasites, or RESUMENLas pérdidas económicas causadas por parásitos del bovino en México se calcularon anualmente. Los principales factores considerados para esta evaluación incluyeron el número total de animales a riesgo, los posibles efectos dañinos del parasitismo sobre la producción de leche o ganancia de peso, y los decomisos de subproductos pecuarios. Las pérdidas económicas fueron estimadas en dólares americanos (US$) y se basaron en las pérdidas del rendimiento productivo de animales no tratados. Estas estimaciones reflejan los principales efectos de seis parásitos o grupos de parásitos sobre la producción bovina. El impacto económico potencial (millones de dólares) fue: nematodos gastrointestinales US$ 445.10; coccidias (Eim eria spp.) US$ 23.78; duelas del hígado (Fasciola hepatica) US$ 130.91; garrapatas (Rhipicephalus m icroplus) US$ 573.61; mosca de los cuernos (Haem atobia irritans) US$ 231.67; y mosca de los establos (Stom ox ys calcitrans) US$ 6.79. En general, las pérdidas anuales causadas por los seis principales parásitos del bovino en México se estimaron en US$ 1.41 mil millones. Considerando que la población bovina nacional en 2013 fue de 32.40 millones de bovinos, la pérdida anual estimada fue de US$ 43.57 por animal. Se hace mención de las limitaciones que tienen el uso de algunas referencias para las estimaciones, particularmente cuando se extrapolan situaciones locales a una escala nacional. Sin embargo, el resultado general obtenido en este estudio demuestra la magnitud e importancia del parasitismo en el ganado de México y los desafíos para maximizar la rentabilidad de la industria ganadera sin recurrir al uso de estrategias de control integrado sustentable de parásitos.

“…Until 1997, INTA cattle were treated with a pyrethroid pour‐on to control horn flies. Treatments were applied three or four times yearly to control fly population peaks in late spring and late summer or early autumn (Guglielmone et al ., 2001b). From 1997 to the present, the use of pyrethroids at the INTA farm has been restricted to a small number of cattle only for experimental purposes.…”

The toxicity of cypermethrin to the horn fly Haematobia irritans (L.) (Diptera: Muscidae) was determined for samples collected from untreated herds at a farm in central Argentina from October 1997 to May 2001. Field tests of the efficacy of cypermethrin against horn flies were first carried out at this farm in 1993, when the fly was shown to be susceptible to pyrethroids. Subsequently the horn fly populations on this farm were shown to have become resistant and, since 1997, the use of cypermethrin has been restricted to experimental purposes. In this study, fly samples collected in 1999, 2000 and 2001 were subjected to a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect the presence of a specific nucleotide substitution in the sodium channel gene sequence, which has been associated with target site insensitivity to pyrethroids. This analysis showed that the level of cypermethrin resistance had diminished between 1997 and 2001. However, this was not sufficient to restore the efficacy of this pyrethroid to the level found prior to the onset of resistance. Heterozygous and homozygous resistant flies were detected in all samples of flies subjected to PCR diagnosis of alleles conferring target site resistance.

“…In Argentina, the populations of H . irritans increase, under normal weather conditions, from early spring (October) to the beginning of fall (late March) (Guglielmone et al. 2001, 2002; Tarelli 2004); and are distributed over 60% of the country, which comprises approximately 90% of the cattle development territory (Torres et al.…”

The use of photoactive substances for controlling adult or immature stages of insect pests is an attractive alternative to chemical insecticides. Phloxine B is an environmentally friendly xanthene derivative that is safe for mammals but toxic for dipterans. In this study we tested the effect of phloxine B as a phototoxic larvicide against immature stages of the blood-sucking horn fly, Haematobia irritans (L.). The mortality rate of phloxine B was very low in the dark during the larval stage (100 h) unless a 0.5-mM dye concentration was used. However, a high mortality rate was attained when larvae III were transferred to containers exposed to 5000 lux during the last 2 h before pupariation. This was concentration-dependent up to 0.1-mM phloxine B. After a 2-h larval exposure to light the phloxine B 50% lethal concentration was 0.043 mM. These results indicate that H. irritans larvae are very sensitive to this dye, which in turn seems a promising component for larvicide formulations to control horn flies.
