ABSTRACT
Numerous
ectoparasites of people and domestic cattle remain a chronic concern in the
contemporary world, despite many attempts at eradication. For many years, pesticide
medications such as organophosphates, organochlorides, and synthetic
pyrethroids were efficient in controlling these parasites; however, widespread
use of these treatments has resulted in resistance in many target species.
Domestic animals play a vital role in food production, producing meat, milk,
and money. The agricultural communities raze livestock’s as an insurance and
investment in contradiction of risk. Animals with short generation intervals
and high fertility offer economic, managerial, and biological benefits, since
milk production can start five or six months after mating and the first corpse
can be sold in less than a year. Livestocks are also a main source of manure,
which helps to fertilize the soil, as well as skin, which is one of the most
significant products that generates foreign cash for the country. However, the
combined effects of sickness, inadequate food, and bad management limit animal
output. Parasitic sickness is one of the most common disorders in domestic
animals and human, and it has a significant economic impact. Ectoparasites of
livestocks are extensively dispersed with varying degrees of incidence, and are
crucial in causing considerable economic damage to the agricultural community,
the tanning and leather sector even throughout the wolrd, necessitating
efficient control methods. Scabies mites, head lice, and bed bugs are important
medical ectoparasites that pose a considerable public health threat, hence
effective management strategies are required. Alternative management approaches
have been developed in a number of ways, but more study is needed before they
can be utilized to effectively regulate the ectoparasitic illnesses in the
forthcoming.
