They’re the size of an apple 🍎 seed, yet this bite-sized problem costs AU's ag industry approx. $160 million per year. Now thanks to a new grant, MU researchers 👩🔬 will investigate ticks to limit them wreaking havoc on WA's cattle indus. loom.ly/gYGxZbE
@MurdochUni @MUniResearch Grateful to receive funding to do this important research 🔬 🐄 @DPIRDWA #CattleIFS @cryptick_lab
Did you catch @DrCharOskam talking about her latest grant to understand biosecurity knowledge gaps relating to ticks & tick borne diseases in cattle on @ABCRural Great Southern and South West Rural Report? @MUniResearch #HarryButlerInstitute @DPIRDWA #CattleIFS
Dr Sheryl van Nunen OAM providing an update on tick associated allergies #mammalianmeatallergy #mma #ticks #alphagal “FREEZE don’t squeeze” to remove ticks! Best not to antagonise the tick when remove it.
Does the reptile tick 𝘉𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘯 𝘩𝘺𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘶𝘳𝘪 bite people? Yes, it does! Dr Stephen Graves has 1st experience - he was bitten on his thigh by this tick!
