Since the Bluetongue outbreak began in Europe in 2006, Intervet researchers have been working to develop a specific vaccine against BTV serotype-8. Intervet has also realised the importance of integrated control measures and can provide ectoparasite control against biting Culicoides midges, the vectors of BTV.

This website has been developed to provide information to farmers and veterinary surgeons about Bluetongue in the UK and information on effective measures to control and eradicate the disease in sheep and cattle populations.
