In this episode, we cover the key health challenges livestock producers face as they transition from spring into the intense heat of an Arkansas summer. Dr. Kirsten Midkiff discusses how sudden temperature spikes can cause significant stress in cattle and highlights the increased parasite pressure—particularly from flies and ticks—that ramps up in late spring. She emphasizes the importance of timely and effective parasite control to protect herd health. We also explain the warning signs of a potential New World screwworm infestation, and stress the importance of immediate reporting to veterinary authorities if a case is suspected.
