Since 2006, a deadly cattle disease called theileriosis has swept through Australian herds, spread by bush ticks and causing serious productivity losses for producers.

Join us for our first ParaBoss webinar as we explore the topic of controlling bush ticks and theileriosis in Australian cattle.

We will be joined by ParaBoss Technical Lead and renowned parasitologist Dr Matt Playford.

Dr Playford will take you on a guided tour of the life cycle of the bush tick as well as known risk factors, epidemiology, economics and animal health impacts. He will discuss diagnostics and control options for bush ticks Haemaphysalis longicornis and the deadly disease, theileriosis.
