İsmail MERİÇ ,Fikri KORKUT

- This investigation was carried out during the spring and the fall in the year of 1966 in Central Anatolia. Two percent aqueous solution of Neguvon was tested to control the grups on a total of 1121 cattle. The ages of these cattle varied from 1 to 4 years. The solution of Neguvon was applied as spraying or back washing at the rates of 0.5 to 1.0 litre to each animal. The effect of Neguvon on cattle group was measured and the methods and the time of its application were detected.

By spraying or washing the back of the warble infested animals with Neguvon solution between the end of January and the begining of February, 2 nd and 3 rd stage warbles were found to be killed in the proportions of 92.68 % and 97.66 respectively during the examinations performed in March, April, May and June. The washing treatments applied to animals in September, October, November and December killed the migrating larvae on their way to the back reduced the number of warbles occuring in spring by as much as 96.84 %, 98.55 %, 99.15 %, and 100.0 % respectively. As to the reductions of warble numbers in the result of spraying treatments made in September, October, November and December they were found to be 93.03 %, 97.73 %, 99.40 % and 100.0 % in the order.

The spraying or washing treatment with Neguvon solution for the control of cattle group should be applied to animals between the middle of October and the end of November or after the bigining of February in Central Anatolia.

The species of Hypoderma occured in Central Anatolia were H. Bovis and H.Linatum. H. Bovis was the commun one in this area. Keywords :
