Equi-store Guide to horse worming

In dealing with worms in your horses and ponies we hope this chart will give you an insight to the time of year certain worms and bots should be dealt with. The programme may change depending whether your horse is kept at grass or stabled and as to which type of internal parasites you are worming for.

Always read the instructions and warnings supplied with your wormer. There is a wealth of information included with each of pack of horse wormer.

As every animal is an individual, there are questions one has to ask, such as general health of your horse, age, will it be foaling, is it lactating and to be aware your horse's previous worming programme. When administering equine worming products you need to take special care. If you are unsure It is worth getting advice from your veterinary surgeon or contact Equi-store and talk to a SQP Click here

Wormers are a vital part of a horse's ongoing veterinary maintenance, horse wormers or equine wormers as they are otherwise known to the equestrian community, help control  worms in your horse to keep internal parasites at bay. These worms have been known to cause fatal colic, weight loss, poor performance, rough coat, pot belly and stunted growth.

All the above should be closely studied on every packet of wormer and the enclosed usage instructions.

Here are a small number of  points, if followed should help to reduce your horse's worm burden.

The first place to start when thinking of worming your horse is to have a veterinary surgeon carry out a worm count on your horses droppings. This is relatively inexpensive and your local vet should be able to do this for you.

It is important to know the weight of your horse. This is helpful when calculating the quantity of horse wormer required.

 Never under dose. This can result in worms building up resistance to specific wormers

 It is wise to have other animals such as sheep or cows to graze side by side with your horse as this helps to reduce the worm cycle in the field or paddock.

All horses in the yard should be wormed at the same time and any new comers should be wormed and isolated away from other horses for at least 48 hours.

Never over stock your field or paddock with horses

Remember all horse are individuals and should be treated as such when it comes to worming and choosing the correct worming product for your animal.

It is worth however getting advice from your veterinary surgeon and having a worm count done on your horses droppings before developing an effective worming strategy for your horse. Currently the best practice in horse worming has been to apply effective horse wormers such as the products listed below, every six to thirteen weeks.
