[QUOTE="Margonme, post: 1383331, member: 25776"] Movement of cattle during the peak of the cattle boom has been cited as contributing to the spread of anaplasmosis but the main concern is local transmission by ticks and contaminated needles. Surgical instruments are also a source of transmission. Studies suggest that ticks of the genus [b]Dermacentor[/b] are the most common vector of anaplasmosis in the United States. There is also concerns about transmission by horse flies. It is important to change needles out between animals. Using a needle that was used on an infected cow can spread the infection to the next cow if reused. Our local vet, Dr Darin Stanfield, told me recently that the two problems he has been most concerned about in the last couple years is pinkeye and anaplasmosis. [/QUOTE]
