Ovine cutaneous myiasis (‘fly strike’) remains a major sheep health problem in many areas of the world. Myiasis risk is the result of a complex interaction of factors, such as fly and host abundance, host susceptibility, climate and, critically, husbandry and management strategies, all of which change seasonally in space and time. Given the complexity of the interacting factors, changes in myiasis incidence are hard to predict, as accordingly are the optimal husbandry responses required to manage the problem. Here the important risk factors are briefly reviewed and the future changes in myiasis incidence under conditions of anticipated climate change are considered. It is concluded that future work should focus in particular on evaluating the optimum use of integrated management, such as the combination of insecticide and trap use, in different environments under a range of farming regimes.
