Quarantine in place due to an established New World Screwworm Infested Zone

NOTICE: There is currently a quarantine in place due to an established New World Screwworm Infested Zone in parts of the following Texas counties: Coke, Edwards, Gillespie, Kerr, Kimble, La Salle, Schleicher, Sutton, Tom Green, Uvalde, Val Verde, Webb, Zavala.

According to the Executive Director Orders issued, all warm-blooded animals in a zone may not move out of the zone without prior authorization from the Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC).

 

View the zone map.

Warm-blooded animals moving outside of an infested zone must contact the TAHC to set up an inspection. During this inspection, an animal health official will fill out an animal movement certificate listing the product used for prevention or treatment and the animals’ official ID. This certificate will need to accompany the animal movement. Additional guidance can be provided during an initial inspection request call to TAHC and general guidance can be referenced in the Livestock Movement from a NWS-Infested Zone handout.
