Horn Fly Management

P. E. Kaufman and E. N. I. Weeks

Horn flies are one of the livestock pests with the greatest impact on the health and productivity of cattle. Economic losses due to horn fly damage are estimated at $36 million annually in Florida alone. In the U.S.A. annual losses total between $700 million and $1 billion, with up to $60 million spent on insecticidal control. Horn fly damage is caused by blood feeding. The flies feed frequently and exclusively on blood, piercing the skin of cattle with their proboscis and taking around 20 small blood meals each day. Pain and irritation due to the constant presence of the flies and their bites causes defensive behavior in the cattle that prevents adequate food consumption and rest.

Hydrilla Integrated Management

Jennifer L. Gillett-Kaufman, Verena-Ulrike Lietze, and Emma N.I. Weeks

The purpose of this book, published in August 2014, is to deliver up-to-date information on hydrilla management tactics that are available for developing hydrilla integrated management plans. Once introduced into a freshwater body, the invasive aquatic plant hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata [L.f.] Royle) can cause damaging infestations that impact stakeholders from various user groups with different interests in the affected water body. These user groups range from lakefront homeowners to recreational visitors to aquatic plant managers to businesses that support ecotourism.
