Washington ramps up efforts against New World worm

U.S. authorities are intensifying efforts to contain the New World spiral worm, following the confirmation of the first case in the country in Zavala County, Texas, where larvae were found in a three-week-old calf. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is implementing an emergency plan that includes establishing a 20-kilometer monitoring zone, imposing quarantine, restricting livestock movement, and expanding sterile fly release campaigns, which currently involve approximately 8 million flies weekly. These measures aim to strengthen control over the pest that affects livestock and wildlife.
