Abstract :

Sheep husbandry plays a vital role in husbandry for centuries, furnishing hair, meat, and milk to people worldwide. One of the most common and potentially dangerous disease is myasis. This condition, generally known as flystrike, is caused by the infestation of bees on a lamb's skin. The condition isn't only extremely painful but it can also lead to serious health complications and indeed death if left undressed. As a lamb planter, it's essential to understand the troubles of myasis and take the necessary steps to help it from affecting the flock. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and forestallment strategies for Myasis empowers to take visionary measures in guarding your flock.
