Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ivermectin and permethrin against wound myiasis induced by fleshflies in Riyadh region.
Three different protocols were planned to evaluate the protective and therapeutic efficacy of the selected drugs.
The obtained results revealed that genital organs were the most prevalent sites of infestation with myiasis in male and females. Application of permethrin and ivermectin resulted in significant reduction in the numbers of live larvae in comparison with control, un-treated group. At the same time ivermectin appeared more effective than permethrin in eradication of larvae from infested wounds. In addition, ivermectin significantly protected sheep from fatal outcome of the infestation and resulted in full protection against re-infestation with fly larvae for 22 days whereas permethrin was only produced partial protection for 13 days .the emergence rate of pupa to adult was significantly reduced in ivermectin treated animals .
