Investigan la “mosca de los cuernos” en bovinos

Desde 1991 el territorio argentino sufre el avance de la haematobia irritans o “mosca de los cuernos”, un insecto que se posa sobre los bovinos, se alimenta de su sangre y puede generar una pérdida de producción de hasta el 20%. Los especialistas descubrieron que la plaga deposita sus huevos en el estiércol, y otro insecto, llamado “escarabajo estercolero”, entierra estos desechos, llevando bajo tierra a los estadios juveniles de la mosca. Según los especialistas, estos beneficios que presenta el escarabajo hay que tenerlos en cuenta "a la hora de establecer una estrategia para repeler el insecto en pos de una mejor producción".
