Abstract
The aim of this study was to estimate the efficacy of an integrated fly control programme in farrowing houses on milk yield of sows and growth performance of offspring. Four insecticides: Solfak Duo, Solfak Duo + Baycidal, Quick Bayt, and Agita were tested on 160 sows and 1690 pigs. The effectiveness of these drugs against adult flies ranged from 71.22 to 98.84% and against larvae: from 98.96 to 100%. The results of the studies showed the positive effect of the integrated insecticidal programme for combating adult flies and their larvae in the mother-pig barn on the milk productivity of sows and live weight of piglets. After the combined use of Solfak Duo + Baycidal insecticides a tendency for better results was observed with higher milk production of sows (by 71.1%) and improved live weight of piglets (by 40.6%).
