| Résumé : |
Hides and leather from 23 cattle exposed to massive infestations of bloodsucking external parasites were evaluated for grain damage in a co-operative series of tests over an eight-year period. In tests under controlled conditions, horn flies, and two species of mosquitoes caused no significant damage to leather grain ; four species of hard ticks caused severe damage in every case, with no apparent differences among the species. Damage from the lone star tick is illustrated at different healing stages. In tests of cattle exposed to severe infestations of parasites under natural conditions, the shortnosed cattle louse caused no significant grain damage inleather ; horse flies and deer flies caused slight but consistent, and possibly significant, damage ; and incidentally occuring demodectic mites caused moderate to severe damage to some of the hides. The detailed nature of the damage is illustrated. Investigation of the mite infestations provided useful information on the transmission of demodectic (follicular) mange, or demodicosis. |
