Abstract
Ecto-parasite infestations pose significant health and economic challenges to buffalo farming, particularly in regions like District Rajanpur, Pakistan. Buffaloes serve as a crucial component of the dairy and meat industries, yet the prevalence and impact of ecto-parasites always remain understudied. Effective control measures, including chemical treatments, are crucial for maintaining animal health and productivity.
