The scabies mite

 

Who are the scabies mite ?

The scabies are infectious, highly contagious dermatoses, whose agents are mites related to ticks and spiders.

We distinguish 3 types of scabies

The ruminants are affected by 3 types of scabies :

  1. Psoroptic or common scabies (Psoroptes ovis): the parasite lives on the skin or under desquamations. Common in sheep, it causes very important waterings on the entire surface of the body.
  2. Sarcoptics (sarcoptes sabei var. bovis or var. Ovis): the hollow parasite of tunnels in the skin. Common to cattle and sheep.
  3. Chorioptics (chorioptes bovis): the parasite lives on the skin or under desquamations at the paws and feet of animals. Common to cattle and sheep.

When the presence of Psoroptic or Sarcoptic scabies is detected, the livestock must be quarantine and treated.

 

The scabies mite, a nuisance for animals

In general, scabs affect the health of animals in four different ways:

  1. Skin damage that can get worse in dermatosis.
  2. Blood loss.
  3. Allergic reactions.
  4. Bacteria vectors that create ideal conditions for the development of infectious diseases

 

How to eliminate the scabies mite on an animal?

Spray our parasites ALT'O ZINSECT spray or gel after cleaning the animals (brush or washing and careful drying).
Depending on the extent of lesions, one to two sprays at 15 days interval are recommended.
