Managing the Asian Longhorned Tick: Checklist of Best Practices for Equines | While primarily a concern on cattle, Asian longhorned tick (ALT) feeds on a variety of hosts, including horses and other equines. ALT reproduces without mating so tick densities can build quickly, and large numbers of ALT can be found on individual animals. ALT larvae, nymphs, and adults may all be found at the same time on the same animal. Wildlife, such as deer, small mammals, and birds, serve as alternative hosts for ticks and assist their spread throughout pastures. Managing ALT can be very difficult because this tick spends most of its life off the host and on the ground. The following recommendations are suggested to help protect your animals. |
