Prevalence of goat warbles (Przhevalskiana silenus Brauer larvae) was carried out on flocks in five villages at Taunsa (n = 455) and four at Barkhan ( n = 431). The animals were examined for the presence of warbles during second and third week of November, 1993. The prevalence was recorded to be 35.4 and 84.2 percent at Taunsa and Barkhan, respectively. The proportion of infested goats across the different villages at both the sites differed significantly. The efficacy of ivermectin against goat warbles was found to be 100 percent.
