Epizootological and epidemiological significance of parasitic dipterians (literature review)

Abstract

The development of animal husbandry, the increase in milk and meat production largely depend on the timely and high-quality implementation of integrated veterinary and sanitary measures. One of the reserves to increase the profitability of animal husbandry is the prevention of diseases of invasive etiology, including entomoses, and the protection of animals from blood-sucking dipterians. Entomoses of farm animals are widespread in Ukraine and cause significant economic damage to livestock farming. It has been established that in sick animals milk, meat and wool productivity, breeding qualities are reduced, weakened young animals are born, which are susceptible to various diseases of infectious and not infectious etiology. The environment affects the characteristics of morphology, physiology, ecology, the behavior of blood-sucking insects. Mass outbreaks of their reproduction cause significant losses to the national economy, contribute to the spread of vector-borne diseases. The study of the role of insects in the transmission of pathogens of vector-borne infections is an important area of modern research. The toxic effect of saliva is one of the aspects of the harmful effects of blood-sucking dipterians on humans and animals. With a high number of attacks by bloodsuckers, intoxication can be of serious importance and manifest itself both in external signs in the form of inflammatory processes on the skin, and in a change in physiological parameters (body temperature, blood balance). In livestock and anthropogenic biocenoses, there is a need for a number of veterinary and sanitary measures to protect animals from the negative effects of parasitic dipterians. The prospect of further research is to improve the existing schemes of veterinary and sanitary measures at livestock enterprises, taking into account modern domestic developments
