Your Role Is Vital—Join the Fight Against New World Screwworm

New World Screwworm (NWS) isn’t just a distant threat—it’s a looming danger with devastating consequences for animal health and welfare. As a dedicated veterinary professional, your vigilance is our first line of defense.

USDA APHIS Veterinary Services invites you to a focused training session designed to sharpen your knowledge and response skills.

What You’ll Learn:

By the end of this targeted training, you’ll be able to:

• Explain the NWS life cycle, clinical signs, and associated risks
• Summarize the latest outbreak status in Central America
• Detect & Report infestations quickly and accurately
• Identify key intervention strategies for rapid response and eradication
• Access vital resources to support your role in stopping NWS

This training isn’t optional—it’s essential. The faster we detect and respond, the stronger our national biosecurity remains.
