Facial eczema. Wanganui Veterinary Services manager Tom Dinwiddie.
Facial eczema warning
Most facial eczema spore counts in Whanganui were below 10,000 early last week, Wanganui Veterinary Services owner Tom Dinwiddie said, but they rose with the hot temperatures later in the week. In warm, still places with more rain some spore counts were already at danger level. March
can be the worst time for facial eczema, Dinwiddie said. He warns farmers to watch out for the lift after the next rain, and advises those planning to spray pasture to do it soon.
