The tick Rhipicephalus microplus (cattle tick) is an obligate hematophagous arthropod, known worldwide for infesting cattle and causing potentially lethal diseases such as cattle tick fever diseases. Such infestations and diseases affect bovine livestock activity, causing a worldwide economic impact estimated at about $18 billion/year, as they decrease meat and milk production and comprom…
Ticks are obligate hematophagous arthropods, vectors of lethal diseases that affect several animals, among them cattle. Thus, this parasite has a negative impact on livestock activity worldwide. As a control method, commonly acaricides have been used, however its indiscriminate use has produced resistant ticks. In addition, such compounds leave hazardous waste disposal in the environment …
Cattle production is a significant component in the global livestock industry due to its contribution to both meat and dairy production. Rhipicephalus microplus, the cattle tick, inflicts substantial economic losses on the cattle industry in many tropical and sub-tropical areas of the globe. Current control methods for R. microplus are reliant on acaracides and other chemoprophylactic/the…
