The honey bee parasite, Varroa destructor, is a leading cause of honey bee population declines. In addition to being an obligate ectoparasitic mite, Varroa carries several viruses that infect honey bees and act as the proximal cause of colony collapses.

Mange is a class of skin diseases caused by parasitic mites. Sarcoptic mange is one of the common contagious skin diseases affecting all the domestic animals through host- adapted variants. All the dogs had intense itching, restlessness, frantic scrating hair-loss, red skin all over the body and scabs. Distribution of the lesions was noticed at the margins of the ears, elbows, face and legs. Parasitic mites that cause mange in mammals embed themselves either in skin or hair follicles in the animal, depending upon their genus. Sarcoptes spp. burrows into skin, while Demodex spp.

These pest infestations are infrequent and typically limited to breeding flocks or layers. Broilers and market turkeys are seldom if ever affected. Management of ectoparasites largely consists of whole flock treatments whenever infestations are detected by scouting birds and/or inspection of the structure and equipment (nest boxes, curtains, slats, cages). Other effective management techniques are not available. It is estimated that slightly more than 4 percent of breeder birds and layers are treated for ectoparasites each year.

Control of ectoparasites on poultry creates additional exposure risks. High pressures sprays or dipping are often used in large commercial operations to treat birds for obligate ectoparasites such as the northern fowl mite. Aerosol and splash represent exposure risks for the applicator in both situations. Routes of entry may be oral, dermal or inhalation. Dipping represents the most significant risk to personnel since each bird must be handled to effectively treat the outbreak. A significant amount of splash occurs as birds are immersed and withdrawn from the dipping vat.
