Sheep bot fly larvae disease mainly affects sheep and goats. This disease mainly occurs from early autumn to mid-autumn. After infection, the sheep become restless, showing symptoms such as shaking the head, running around, and lowering the head to press the tip of the nose against the ground; some hide their heads under the bellies of other sheep. Treatment: (1) In early autumn, when adult flies fly and deposit larvae, an insecticidal ointment can be applied to the sheep's nose and nostrils once every 7 days to prevent adult flies from depositing larvae. (2) Spray 60 ml of 3% Lysol solution into the sheep's nostrils once a day for 7 consecutive days; the curative effect is excellent.
