Abstract
Parasite control in cats and dogs is important, not only to improve animal health but also to reduce zoonotic risk. The likelihood of parasitic disease and zoonotic transmission may be influenced by immunological changes in individual animals and by increased stocking density and proximity. The breeding environment for bitches, queens and their litters represents a situation where optimal conditions for parasites may be present in combination, therefore special consideration needs to be taken in their control. This article considers the treatment and control of fleas, mites and lice, and considers factors that may present particular problems in the breeding environment.
