Insecticidal efficiency of tetramethrin against Melophagus ovinus (Insecta: Diptera: Hippoboscidae)

https://doi.org/10.33092/0025-8326mp2024.4.46-51

Abstract

In this research paper, we describe the results of experiments aimed at determining the insecticidal efficiency of aqueous emulsions of a synthetic pyrethroid with the active substance 5% tetramethrin EC against sheep bloodsuckers of the Melophagus ovinus species in vitro. As a result of the experiments, we found a fairly high efficiency of the insecticide at low concentrations. In addition, when examining the livestock of sheep in the private sector located in the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, melophagosis was diagnosed in all animals, which corresponds to 100% extensiveness of the invasion.
