Warble Fly Damage to Livestock and Leather Goods
The text explains how warble flies terrify animals, lower milk production, and slow gains in flesh. Infested cattle become unthrifty. beef carcasses suffer from trimming at the loin, lowering carcass grade. Hides damaged by larval emergence lose value.
