⚠️ SCREWWORM NOTICE FOR PET OWNERS ⚠️

The USDA recently confirmed a case of New World screwworm in a cow in South Texas, and a recent case involving a dog was reported in Lea County, New Mexico.

New World screwworm is a serious parasite that can affect livestock, wildlife, pets, and, in rare cases, people. Unlike typical maggots that feed on dead tissue, screwworm larvae burrow into healthy, living tissue, causing painful wounds and severe infections.

🐶 Dog owners: There is good news. The FDA has approved Credelio Quattro for the treatment of New World screwworm infestations in dogs and puppies 8 weeks of age and older. In addition to protecting against fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites, this medication can play an important role in protecting dogs from this emerging threat.

🐱 Cat owners: NexGard Combo has also been approved as a treatment option for screwworm infestations in cats.

As temperatures rise and pets spend more time outdoors, it is more important than ever to keep them on year-round parasite prevention and monitor any wounds or skin injuries closely.

If your pet is not currently on prevention, contact PETS Clinic of Lubbock to discuss the best options for your furry family member. Dogs MUST have a current heartworm test to receive medication.

🐾 Prevention is always easier—and safer—than treatment.
