Pet dogs transfer veterinary medicines to the environment

N. J. Diepens et al.

Summary: The increasing number of pet dogs globally leads to a higher usage of veterinary medicines for flea and tick control. A study was conducted to investigate the transfer of these medicines from dogs to the environment. The study found frequent contamination of untreated dogs with veterinary flea products, suggesting widespread secondary transfer. The presence of these products in bird nests and swimming water indicates potential exposure pathways for other animals.

Efficacy of a federally approved flea bait, orally administered to white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus), against blood feeding Ixodes scapularis larvae under simulated field conditions

David M. Poche et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the use of a federally approved fipronil flea control bait (Grain Bait) in controlling I. scapularis parasitizing white-footed mice. The results showed that the Grain Bait effectively prevented larvae from feeding to repletion, with a prevention rate of 100% at Day 7 post-exposure and 80% at Day 21 post-exposure. It also prevented 84% of larvae from molting into nymphs.

Assembling a safe and effective toolbox for integrated flea control and plague mitigation: Fipronil experiments with prairie dogs

David Eads et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the use of a grain bait laced with 0.005% fipronil for flea control and plague mitigation in black-tailed prairie dogs (BTPDs). The results show that the fipronil grain effectively suppresses fleas on BTPDs and improves their body condition and reproduction. During a plague outbreak, the use of fipronil grain protected BTPDs and significantly reduced their population on untreated habitats. The application of fipronil grain is also faster compared to dusting burrows.

Exploring and Mitigating Plague for One Health Purposes

David A. Eads et al.

Summary: This review focuses on the development of a national One Health framework to combat zoonotic diseases like sylvatic plague caused by Yersinia pestis. It emphasizes the importance of increasing awareness and discussing examples of plague mitigation efforts. The review highlights the threats Y. pestis poses to ecosystems and the need for collaborative research to identify effective mitigation practices for human and environmental health purposes.

Epizootic Plague in Prairie Dogs: Correlates and Control with Deltamethrin

Dean E. Biggins et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the high effectiveness of deltamethrin in preventing plague outbreaks among prairie dog colonies. Untreated areas are more susceptible to outbreaks, and flea abundance in the year before an epidemic plays a critical role in plague transmission.

Oral Sylvatic Plague Vaccine Does Not Adequately Protect Prairie Dogs (Cynomys spp.) for Endangered Black-Footed Ferret (Mustela nigripes) Conservation

Marc R. Matchett et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the effectiveness of the oral sylvatic plague vaccine in black-tailed prairie dogs is still limited, as constraints in vaccine delivery leave a large majority of populations vulnerable to plague for 6-7 months each year.

Comparison of Flea Sampling Methods and Yersinia pestis Detection on Prairie Dog Colonies

David A. Eads et al.

Summary: Analysis of data from different time periods and regions revealed that using the method of swabbing fleas from burrows does not consistently explain flea burdens on prairie dogs or provide reliable information on plague prevalence. The study also highlights the limitations of burrow swabbing in accurately representing flea species composition and phenology on prairie dogs.
