BREAKING: We have received reports—and video evidence—of two potential New World Screwworm (NWS) infestations in U.S. cattle: one in Texas, one in Oklahoma.
We have chosen not to share the videos, because the last time we did, locked us out of our account for 4 weeks.
Reports conflict on whether these cases tested positive or negative for NWS. We sincerely hope they are negative, but we are seeking clarification from the USDA.
We call on @USDA_APHIS to immediately release the results of all recent NWS tests, as it is a requirement that all potential NWS specimens go to National Veterinary Laboratory Services (NVSL) in Ames, IA for official testing.
This is an ongoing threat to our nation. Lack of timely, transparent updates creates unnecessary volatility and uncertainty in the cattle industry —directly hurting the livelihoods of small and independent American ranchers.
Now we have gene drives that can kill of invasive species; insert a deleterious gene using CRISPER technology into individuals and release them:

You won’t believe this. A treatment is ivermectin topically. Horse paste! Really? For cows?
Eco natzies used to spike trees
This might be them spiking cows
They are quite into destroying private enterprise and society
With Biden having the border down and illegals flooding into the US and the outbreak of diseases long gone now back in the USA I was wondering how soon the Screw worm fly would be back.
Lumps on the back? Sounds like Heel flies and not screw worms.
They look like there should be tiny Fremen riding on them.
Aren’t they the same as bot flys? If so, they’ve been around for a long time.
Females breed only once, so every female that breeds with a sterile male is prevented from reproducing. Sounds like that program will need to be restarted.
I thought we’re supposed to eat the bugs.
How bout just some de-wormer.
Break out the Ivermectin!
Chinese agro-warfare?
The efficacy of ivermectin against larvae of the screw-worm fly (Chrysomya bezziana)
It's very.
“Powerful insecticide harmless to humans” = “safe and effective”
But it’s horse paste. On cows? And my idiot vet prescribed it for my dog. He should go to jail. My dog is not a horse. Don’t ask my dog’s opinion. Just because the problem cleared up doesn’t mean it worked.
A doctor prescribed DDT to a friend of mine who was afflicted with “body lice.” Cleared it right up. But what about the planet? The doctor raped Gea.
Save Gaia—avoid body lice!
We are so screwed 😬
