Theileriosis is a major threat to dairy industry that causes a fatal disease in cattle. The aim of the present
study was to assess the prevalence of theileriosis in cattle, 620 blood samples were screened by using
Giemsa's staining technique. Microscopic examination of blood smears revealed 9.35% (58) overall
prevalence of theileriosis. The highest prevalence was found in summer season with a prevalence rate 13.3%
which indicates that theileriosis spread more in hot and humid weather (summer season), immediate
screening norms/policies are needed to reduce the extent of spread. There is a need for further investigation
using molecular technique.
