In order to assess cattle parasitism management and use of anthelmintics, a questionnaire was administered to randomly selected farmers and veterinarians. Analysis of faecal samples and haemoparasites, and entomological survey were performed. Worm infestations, ectoparasites, infectious diseases and trypanosomosis were major diseases. Helminths control included mainly de-worming using levamisole, ivermectin and albendazole. Faecal egg counts (FEC) showed strongyle-type eggs (75%), Strongyloides papillosus (5%), Trichuris ovis (2%), Toxocara vitullorum (3%). Oocytes, especially Eimeria spp (10%) were present. 2.8% of 107 cattle investigated were positive for Trypanosoma congolense, with lowest Packed Cells Volume, suggesting that farmers may treat animals against trypanosomes without the help of a veterinarian. Ticks included Amblyomma variegatum (29.6%), Hyalomma spp (37.0%), Boophilus spp (29.6 %) and Rhippicephalus spp (3.7%). They were males (40.7%), females (38.9%) and nymphs (20.4%). Since many factors were important predictors of FEC and others such as education of farmers, nutrition, grazing system and control through anthelmintics accounted, these factors should be included in the drawing up of a control program against parasitic diseases.
