The Texas Animal Health Commission confirmed a New World screwworm infestation in a bovine in Mitchell County on November 4 and imposed a quarantine on November 5. Infested Zone 30 covers parts of Fisher, Mitchell, Nolan and Scurry counties, and animals cannot leave the zone without inspection or authorization.
Movement restrictions limit the flow of cattle out of the affected area, which can tighten local supply and add handling costs for producers. The quarantine could widen if the parasite spreads further.
