Insect pests of animals - USDA S1060 Project Extension website

The USDA S1060 Multistate Project "Fly Management in Animal Agriculture Systems and Impacts on Animal Health" brings together approximately 25 research and extension scientists from universities, federal research agencies, and private industry each year to identify research and extension needs for managing arthropod pests of animals.  Recently, the S1060 group included extension of arthropod management information as one of its primary goals.  To that end, the group has collectively worked on a number of ways to provide useful information to animal producers, extension agents, and the general public.  The "Insect Pests of Animals" website provides a single site where much of this information can be found or as a way to locate other university and extension websites for additional information.  This poster will highlight and discuss some of the information available on this website.
