Abstract: | Knowledge of the biology of the target pest is essential to the design of efficient control programs.However, information is lacking on many important aspects of the basic biology of sheep lice (Bovicolaovis) despite recommendations of the need for research in this area from past workshops. In this paperwe summarise some of the more recent information on transmission and population dynamics of sheeplice and discuss implications for control. We also describe factors which may regulate these processesand highlight some specific areas in which information is required. |
