The absence of larvae in lambs of six infected and controlled ewes immediately killed at birth without suckling may indicate the absence of prenatal infection. The ewes had larvae in their milk immediately prior to lambing and several hours afterwards. The persistence of infection, even after intestinal infection was removed with thiabendazole at 50 mg/kg body weight, may be due to the pool of inhibited larvae. All the suckling lambs had patent infections within 4 to 5 days. Infection of suckling lambs with strongyloides papillosus via milk from their ewes demonstrates the transmammary route of infection of this nematode.
