This document provides an overview of the common cattle grub, Hypoderma lineatum, detailing its distribution, life cycle, and impact on livestock. Found in cattle across the Northern Hemisphere, the grub's larvae cause significant irritation and economic loss by damaging hides and reducing milk yield. The article discusses various control methods, including mechanical removal, insecticide treatments, and potential vaccines. Integrated management strategies, such as the sterile male-release technique, are also explored to mitigate the pest's impact on cattle health and productivity. First published Dec. 1997.
