Abstract
Fascioliasis, a disease caused by flukes of the Trematode genus Fasciola, is responsible for economic losses in many countries. Sheep and cattle are commonly attacked but other domestic animals, game animals and other wild animals may also be infected. Control measures embrace dosing with drugs (of which there are many, of varying efficacy and safety), attacking the snail intermediate hosts with molluscicides, destroying the habitat of the snail through drainage or ensuring that sheep and cattle are isolated from infective areas.
