Abstract
With the termination of Western Australia's Sheep Lice Eradication Campaign in 1993 farmers' views about the eradication of sheep lice are of greater relevance now than in the past. Lice control now rests with individual farmers and continuing local lice cell groups .
A recent survey of producers in the Moora Shire provides some key insights into farmers' thoughts about sheep lice and their eradication.
