A sheep reared outdoors in Victoria was found to be heavily infested with a stored product mite, Sancassania berlesei (Acaridae), apparently subsequent to an earlier flystrike. Laboratory observation revealed the infestation to be self-sustaining. Shearing rapidly resolved the infestation but treatment with diazinon was ineffective. The infestation could be transferred to other sheep only in the presence of moisture; once established it caused an extensive skin lesion with considerable fluid loss, apparently contributing to the death of one animal. This lesion was extremely attractive to blowflies. Animals infested with mites showed few signs of irritation.
在维多利亚州户外饲养的一只绵羊被发现感染了大量仓储螨（Sancassania berlesei，粉螨科），显然是在早期发生蝇蛆病之后。实验室观察表明这种感染具有自我维持性。剪毛迅速解决了感染问题，但用二嗪农治疗无效。这种感染只有在有水分的情况下才能传染给其他绵羊；一旦感染，就会导致广泛的皮肤损伤，伴有大量体液流失，显然这是导致一只羊死亡的原因。这种损伤对绿头苍蝇极具吸引力。感染螨的动物几乎没有刺激迹象。
