As of now, these drugs are getting harder to come by. The best thing to do now is keep 👀 eyes on your animals daily. This includes dogs, cats, chickens, goat, and if you trap wild hogs give them food once over. Report anything suspicious and as always you can contact your local veterinarian.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized and conditionally approved drugs available for New World screwworm infestation and prevention. Farmers and ranchers are advised to contact their veterinarian to receive direction on the appropriate product for their animals.
