Up to 13 different species of lice have been reported to affect peacocks worldwide and heavy infestation may cause anaemia. Because of this, alternatives to the prevailing treatments have been sought including use of isoxazolines. This class of drugs has been used successfully in poultry without adverse effects on health or production.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>To evaluate the effect of afoxolaner on the peacock louse (<jats:italic>Goniodes pavonis<\/jats:italic>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Animals<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty\u2010three peacocks (<jats:italic>Pavo cristatus<\/jats:italic>) with naturally occurring infestation with <jats:italic>G.\u00a0pavonis<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods and materials<\/jats:title><jats:p>The peacocks were divided in two groups; one was treated once orally with 2.5\u00a0mg\/kg afoxolaner and the other group received no treatment.
