Blowfly Strike: Swift action is needed by farmers to prevent Blowfly strike. Blowfly strike is a very distressing complaint for an animal and can cause the death of affected animals. Blowfly normally strike sheep during the summer months and lambs and unshorn sheep tend to be at greater risk. Although Blowfly strike can occur virtually anywhere in the country, they tend not to affect areas of high altitute, prefering the more sheltered areas, such as woodland, riverside especially on sunny, showery and humid days between April and October.
