Do not use same accaricides for more than 3 years 

President Yoweri Museveni has advised dairy farmers from Uganda's cattle corridor districts in Western, South Western, Southern and part of Central Regions not to use the same accaricides, especially for tick control for a period exceeding 3 years, as the parasite quickly adapts to the accarricide becoming more resistant and making the drug ineffective.
"Do not use the same accaricides for more than 3 years to combat ticks as the parasite becomes resistant if the acaricide is used over a long period of time", he said.
