Comprehensive Prevention and Control Measures for Vectors in Tropical Pig Farms
The climate in tropical regions differs greatly from other climate conditions.The climate in tropical areas is char-acterized by high temperatures,high humidity,abundant rainfall,small temperature changes,and significant monsoon effects,which provide very favorable conditions for the survival and reproduction of vectors.However,vector-borne disease preven-tion and control on pig farms are highly challenging.This review introduces several methods for vector control in tropical pig farms,including environmental governance,physical prevention and control,chemical prevention and control,and biological prevention and control.Practical production applications have shown that the combined use of multiple methods will help improve the prevention and control capability of vectors on pig farms and reduce losses caused by vector-borne diseases.
