2 Cochliomyia hominivorax Only insect known to consume living tissue of warm- blooded animals Currently endemic in South America and some Caribbean Islands, including Cuba
3 Female flies only mate once Female flies attracted to blood or odors Eggs laid near wound First instar visible in ~3 days discharge and odor Second instar and third instar ~4-12 days Pupae drops from wound burrows into ground Hatch depends on environmental conditions Mature in 3-5 days to mate
4
5 1852: First reports of New World Screwworm 1958: Development of sterile male technique (SIT) 1966: U.S. free of Screwworm 1991: Mexico declared free 2003: Sterile fly facility established in Panama
6 Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is the only effective strategy for eliminating established NWS fly populations. Affected areas are inundated with sterile male NWS flies. Target is 10:1 ratio of sterile to wild type The females only mate once in their lifetime, so every female that mates with a sterile male has no offspring.
7 Larvae visible in wound by 3 days May be hundreds present Bloody discharge Foul-smelling odor Depression Off feed Separation Attempt to control discomfort Can be fatal if not treated
8 Removal of larvae Debridement, if necessary Good hygiene Topical Insecticides Anti-parasitic drugs Avermectins-Injectable, topical Capstar (nitenpyram) others
9 Contact from biologist at National Key Deer Refuge (September 29, 2016) Severe fly infestation with aggressive myiasis Over 20 deer had been euthanized for myiasis Big Pine Key & No Name Key Original case July 4, 2016 in deer motor vehicle related injury Larvae sample shipped to NVSL high priority investigation

19 Prevent infestation from spreading to new areas Disease surveillance to identify additional cases Fly-trapping to determine the extent of infestation Elimination of New World screwworm flies from the affected Keys Sterile fly release twice weekly at several locations Approximately 7.2 million flies per week Treat Key Deer
