MYTH: New World screwworm is a disease vector.

FACT: New World screwworm is NOT a disease vector. A disease vector is an organism that transmits an infectious pathogen (such as a virus, bacterium, or parasite) from one host to another. New World screwworm is NOT infectious and cannot be transmitted from animal to animal, from animal to human, or vice versa.

How does New World Screwworm relate to your pets and companion animals? Screwworm can infect all mammals, so it’s important to be aware of the symptoms and monitor your animals closely.

When your pet or companion animal has an open wound, watch for:
- Wound worsening or not healing normally.
- Swelling, discharge, or foul odor.
- Visible larvae or maggots.
- Animals licking or biting at the wound.
- Restlessness, isolation, or unusual behavior.

Many of these symptoms can be mistaken for illness, injury complications, or other health conditions. Animal owners should closely inspect any wound that is not healing normally. If you suspect New World Screwworm, avoid moving your animal and contact your veterinarian.
