Important news for those traveling south for the winter, and for us here next fly season. This is a reportable foreign animal disease; please contact me or another veterinarian if you find an infected wound with larvae/maggots.
Reported spread of screwworm, a devastating and potentially deadly pest, into Mexico has caused the U.S. Department of Agriculture to restrict movement of horses between Mexico and the U.S., and the U.S. Federation to issue an alert and warning about the infestation.
