“…Pupal parasitoids from different species can contribute to controlling fly populations in horse farms by predating on certain species of Diptera (Machtinger, Geden, Kaufman, & House, 2015). Timing and location of the release of these predators is critical for efficacy (Machtinger et al, 2015 Marked behavioral changes noted in horses treated (Berger et al, 2008) Pyrethrin Topical Concentration to 0.5% (French et al, 2016) Pyrethroids Cypermethrin Topical…”

Ectoparasites infestations are a growing concern to horse owners and equine veterinarians alike. Ectoparasites cause significant health and welfare issues and can potentially can serve as vectors for a variety of pathogens. The prevalence of ectoparasites increases around the world, and especially in horses information on the successful prevention and treatment of ectoparasite infestations in scarce and in many instances anecdotal. This poses a challenge to the equine veterinarian and off‐label use of drugs can lead to detrimental effects in horses. In this review we describe the current available evidence for the prevention and treatment of ectoparasite infestations in horses. Only a very limited number of products is approved for the use in horses and fortunately many of the other products that are used in an off‐label manner appear to be safe in horses. Future research in this area should aim at providing PK/PD modelling data to assure appropriate and safe dose regimen to prevent and treat ectoparasite infestations in horses.

“…En otro trabajo se observó que la abundancia de la mosca se vio influida únicamente por los cambios de lluvia y humedad relativa, ya que la temperatura se mantuvo prácticamente constante durante el año (24) . De la misma manera, en explotaciones equinas el tamaño de la población de mosca se vio afectada por la temperatura y la humedad, ya que la población de moscas aumenta en primavera cuando las temperaturas suben y disminuye en otoño cuando las temperaturas bajan (26) . Se ha observado que la temperatura tiene un gran impacto en la actividad física de M. domestica durante el día, la actividad se incrementa con la temperatura a intervalo de 10 a 30-35 °C, además de que se incrementa la dispersión y transmisión de patógenos, y la actividad física disminuye cuando la temperatura está por arriba de 35 °C (27) .…”

Resumen:M. domestica es el mayor parásito doméstico que causa descomposición de alimentos y actúa como vector de más de 100 patógenos para la medicina humana y veterinaria, tiene una cercana asociación con el hombre y su ambiente. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el desarrollo de M. domestica a diferentes niveles de temperatura y humedad relativa y determinar su potencial incidencia en el municipio de Jesús María, Aguascalientes. El estudio se desarrolló en el Centro de Ciencias Agropecuarias de la Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes (CCA-UAA), que presenta un clima semiseco templado (BS1k) con

“…IPM programs are based on different methods and incorporate a diverse set of techniques to reduce insect pest populations, implementing combinations of strategies that maximize pest control and minimize environmental, health, and economic risks. For successful IPM, a number of steps should be considered before the initiation of a biological control program with pupal parasitoids, for example, cyclical elements of pest detection and identiication, the use of established thresholds, monitoring of abundance, the application of methods more suited to management, and the evaluation of results (MACHTINGER et al, 2015).…”

“…Therefore, IPM requires knowledge of the crops, insect pests, and population density of these insects and their natural enemies. In addition, it requires the determination of control methods and careful selection and use of techniques that are more effective at reducing pest populations to levels that do not lead to economic damage (ZANETTI et al, 2014;MACHTINGER et al, 2015). Accordingly, biological control programs can be an integral component of the management of invasive species, and have great potential for success and return on investment when IPM systems are used (DITOMASO et al, 2017).…”

Pupal parasitoids for the biological control of Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), popularmente conhecida como broca da cana-de-açúcar, é a maior praga da cultura de cana de açúcar e é responsável por consideráveis danos econômicos. O manejo dessa praga é complexo devido ao alojamento no interior do colmo; quando imatura, cria galerias que enfraquecem as plantas, reduz a biomassa e a qualidade do suco da cana, e perdas na produtividade agrícola. O uso excessivo de inseticidas químicos propicia resistência dessas pragas, danos ao meio ambiente, à fauna e à flora e alto custo. Dessa forma, um componente imprescindível do manejo de pragas é o controle biológico. Todas as espécies animais e vegetais apresentam inimigos naturais (parasitoides, predadores, entomopatógenos) que atacam diversos estágios de desenvolvimento. Parasitoides representam uma importante ferramenta no controle biológico de pragas lepidópteras. O conhecimento da atividade do parasitoide pupal é importante para o desenvolvimento de estratégias de controle biológico para essa praga, a qual ocasiona perdas significativas. Portanto, este artigo usa dados publicados para destacar a importância e a eficácia dos parasitoides contra a pupa da broca da cana-de-açúcar.
